Labour Party Suspends Nat. Chair, Abure
The Labour Party’s National Chairman, Julius Abure, has faced suspension from the party’s Ward 3 in Arue-Uromi, Esan North-East Local Government Area of Edo State, over allegations of high-handedness and anti-party activities.
Dated May 14, 2024, a letter of suspension, along with a ratification letter dated May 15, 2024, were both endorsed during a state executive committee meeting held Friday night in Benin, enforcing an immediate suspension.
Abure was advised to refrain from identifying or presenting himself as a party member. The suspension letter was signed by Ward Chairman Thompson Ehiguese and Ward Secretary Stanley Usiomoh.
Furthermore, the ratification of his suspension was conveyed to the State Executive Committee by Esan North-East Local Government Chairman Patrick Onogbeni and LG Secretary Ehikioya Eromosele.
The ratification letter read, “Here forwarded to you and for your consideration is the ratification of the suspension of Julius Abure from the membership of Ward 3, Arue, Uromi, Ean North East LGA, Edo State.
“The LGA Executive met on 15th of May, 2024, about noon, to consider the matters presented on the suspension and accordingly found them weighty and the suspension ratified and upheld.”
The State Executive Committee led by Kelly Ogbaloi endorsed the decisions of the ward and local government committee of the party on Friday.
The venue of the meeting was charged as leaders and members of the party chanted: “Abure must go!”
The State Executive Committee considered the letters, together with the issues contained therein, and ratified Abure’s suspension.
