The leadership of the Labour Party has warned party members, supporters and aspirants against obtaining nomination forms from the embattled former National Chairman, Julius Abure, describing such forms as “worthless paper.”
In a statement issued on Sunday by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Ken Asogwa, the party accused Abure of impersonation and attempting to deceive unsuspecting aspirants ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Asogwa said the party was compelled to respond following the circulation of pictures on social media showing Abure presenting what he described as nomination forms to some individuals in Abia State.
The statement partly read, “Let it be stated clearly and unequivocally that Nenadi Usman is the National Chairman of the Labour Party, and all legitimate nomination forms for every elective position ahead of the 2027 general elections can only be obtained through the official National Secretariat of the party located in Utako, Abuja.
