The Labour Party, LP may have suspended it’s Anambra 2025 governorship primary scheduled for tomorrow, Saturday, April 5,2025 indefinitely.
The suspension and unexpected turn of events was consequent upon Friday’s afternoon long awaited verdict of the Supreme Court.
The verdict which threw an irredeemable spanner in the works of the party leadership hitherto under Barrister Julius Abure ordered him to vacate the party Secretariat along with his executives at all levels.
Its Anambra State chapter acting chairman, Comrade Peter Okoye in an exclusive interview with journalists in Awka Friday afternoon disclosed that the Governorship primary earlier fixed for April 5,2025 shall no longer hold.
According to him, “by virtue of the Supreme Court’s verdict this afternoon any primary election conducted by any executive outside that led by Senator Nenadi Usman will not stand.
“The new helmsman and her team would take over the National Secretariat and other structures down the line nationwide immediately.’
Okoye disclosed that he has already fixed a meeting of the acting Anambra State executive for Saturday to formulate a way forward so as to brief the national Secretariat immediately.
He urged “all our teeming members and supporters to remain steadfast and unshaken in their support.
Okoye noted that in due course things would be normalized.
He described LP as the fastest growing party in Nigeria, especially Anambra State.
He however urged every member/stakeholder to be ever vigilant and to await further directives.
