US EditionNenadi Usman Faction Broke Into LP Secretariat, Carted Away Valuables - Julius Abure Alleges
The faction claims Nenadi Usman’s group, backed by police and trucks, forcibly took control of the secretariat despite a court ruling, prompting a legal stay and appeal.
- On Tuesday, the Julius Abure-led faction accused the Interim National Chairman of forcefully breaking into the Labour Party Secretariat around 1am and stealing files and valuables.
- A Federal High Court in the FCT recognized Usman as Interim Chairman, and the party obtained a Stay of Execution and appealed, making any forced takeover inappropriate, the faction said.
- Obiora Ifoh, the factional National Publicity Secretary, said senior officials were prevented from gaining access that morning, alleging that the operation was aided by eight truck-loads of police.
- The Abure-led faction warned that unchecked anomalies threaten democracy and urged the Police, DSS, and ONSA to note the unlawful invasion of the party Secretariat.
- Allegations that a state official and police were involved suggest the dispute now moves through legal channels as the Julius Abure-led faction emphasizes lawful action and has obtained a Stay of Execution and appeal.
