The leadership of the Labour Party has asked the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Comrade Joe Ajero to resign his position in order to contest for the Chairmanship of the party since he appears desperate to replace Julius Abure.
This statement was made known by National Publicity Secretary of the LP, Obiora Ifoh in Abuja on Saturday.
He said the party’s attention was drawn to a Press Release titled ‘A misadventure in political mischief, mismanagement and misdemeanor gone too far’ written by the NLC’s Political Commission as an agent of the Nigeria Labour Congress.
The allegation was a response to an open letter written on Friday by the political wing of the NLC, the Nigeria Labour Congress Political Commission.

In the letter jointly signed by the Chairman and Secretary of the commission, Titus Amba and Chris Uyot, Abure and the NWC were accused of proposing a ‘secret’ national convention in Umuahia, Abia State capital on March 27 that will re-elect Abure to continue running the Labour Party as a ‘sole administrator.’
Describing the planned convention as illegal, the political wing of the NLC called for the immediate resignation of Abure as the party chairman and the constitution of a caretaker transition committee to organise a legitimate and all-inclusive national convention for the party.
However, the leadership of LP kicked against the directive which it claimed was being orchestrated by Ajaero over his alleged ambition to become the next national chairman of the party.
Ifoh also stated that the said national convention planned to be held in Umuahia on March 27 will go on as planned.
So NLC is now an offshoot of a Political Party?
No wonder they are demanding for an outrageous minimum wage, to discredit President Tinubu and the APC government.
These Obidiot boys sgai!!!
