Abure's Suspension
EKO HOT BLOG reports that Julius Abure, the National Chairman of the Labour Party (LP), has been suspended from his position.
The suspension, outlined in a letter dated May 14, 2024, by Mr. Thompson Ehiguese, the Chairman of Ward 3 in Arue, Uromi, Esan North East local government area of Edo State, cited reasons including allegations of high-handedness, anti-party activities, and ongoing investigations into fraud accusations against Abure.
“While the suspension is with immediate effect, you are advised to refrain from holding out or parading yourself as a member of Labour Party, Ward 3, Arue, Uromi, Esan North East Local Government Area of Edo State,” the letter said in part.
Meanwhile, the Edo State chairman of LP, Mr. Kelly Ogbaloi, has ratified the suspension of Julius Abure.
