LP leadership urges reconciliation, commits to national progress

The Labour Party has reaffirmed its commitment to fostering unity and prioritising national and party interests amid recent internal challenges.

Speaking during a solidarity visit by state chairmen from 37 states and the FCT, the party’s National Chairman, Julius Abure, called for reconciliation and a collective focus on the party’s future.

Abure stressed the importance of rising above personal differences to strengthen the Labour Party as a vehicle for national development.

“Every family and political party experiences disagreements,” he said.

“What defines us is our ability to resolve those differences and emerge stronger. The interests of the party and the nation must always come first.”

The chairman also expressed gratitude to the judiciary for upholding justice and the rule of law in Labour Party cases.

“We appreciate the judiciary for standing firm on the side of justice,” he noted, adding confidence that the courts would continue to interpret the law fairly in matters concerning the party.

Reiterating the party’s readiness for reconciliation, Abure invited all aggrieved members to return to the fold.

“Our doors remain open for dialogue and healing. Together, we can build a formidable force for the good of our nation,” he said.

The state chairmen praised     Abure’s leadership in navigating the party through internal crises that threatened its stability.

Enugu State Chapter Chairman, Dr. Casmir Agbo, commended the chairman for his decisive actions and vision. “Under his leadership, the Labour Party has weathered storms that could have derailed us,” Agbo remarked.

The state chairmen also called on dissenting members to embrace peace and unity. “We appeal to our brothers to let go of grievances and join hands with the current leadership to reposition the party for success,” Agbo added.

The Labour Party concluded by affirming its focus on building a stronger, more unified platform to drive positive change in Nigeria’s political landscape.
