Read Full Text of the PRESS RELEASE:
The recent ruling by the Supreme Court, which allowed the appeal filed by Senator Nenadi Usman—declaring it meritorious—while dismissing the cross-appeal filed by the Abure faction of the Labour Party as unmeritorious, is a victory for the rule of law and a significant milestone for our democracy.
It is important to emphasize that this is not a time for triumphalism—there is no victor and no vanquished. What matters most is our shared commitment to the ideals and aspirations of the Labour Party and the Nigerian people. We must now come together, united in purpose and vision, to move the party forward.
The Labour Party remains one indivisible family, steadfast in its mission to create a New Nigeria founded on justice, equity, and people-centered governance.
We call on all party members, supporters, and stakeholders to remain calm, focused, and committed to the democratic ideals that bind us.
A New Nigeria is POssible!
Senator Nenadi E. Usman, PhD Chairman, Labour Party Caretaker Committee
