The Nenadi faction, backed by Abia State Governor Alex Otti, took control of the party’s secretariat in Abuja following a Federal High Court ruling recognising Nenadi Usman as the Interim National Chairman of the LP.
However, the Abure-led faction allegedly stormed the facility later that night and pulled down Nenadi Usman’s billboard, according to the party’s statement.
The Nenadi group raised the alarm on its official X account on Wednesday morning, describing the incident as a “sad development.”
The post read: “Former and expelled Julius Abure led hoodlums to vandalize our National HQ and pulled down our billboard. Very sad.”
The development highlights ongoing tensions within the Labour Party as rival factions compete for control ahead of the upcoming electoral cycle.
