The Labour Party Presidential Council spokesperson, Dr Tanko Yususa, stated that the crisis rocking the party’s leadership is not about the embattled National Chairman, Julius Abure, but rather about Peter Obi.
The Labour Party’s post-election crisis took a new turn on Thursday, when the Nigeria Police Force locked its headquarters over a power struggle among its leaders.
Yunusa stated on Wednesday during an interview on Channels Television that the disarray in the LP is being created to hamper the party’s presidential candidate Peter Obi, who is in court challenging Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s victory in the February 25th poll.

“We are at the point of struggling for the soul of Nigeria led by Peter Obi; we are now being meddled and manipulated within the party to challenge the leadership of the party who is at the front of this particular struggle and then leaving credence to other things. I am not alluding that they don’t have a document to prove against Julius Abure; this should be done within the party.
“I had made it clear that the target is beyond the party chairman; it is against our presidential candidate, Peter Obi,” he said.
