Oparah said, “Mr Abure, the national chairman of Labour Party has been involved in serial criminality. The late national chairman of our party, A. A. Salam, died on the 29th December 2020, and February, after his death, I’m still wondering how he came from the dead to come and sign a check that only Abure, as at that time, was the secretary of the party. I’m wondering how he rose from the dead to come and sign that check for Abure to claim money. These monies were claimed from the 28th of February through the 7th of March. These monies were paid in two batches, 14 million naira, that is seven-seven million naira.”
The treasurer went on to claim that Abure has not given her the authority to act in her capacity as the national treasurer of the Labour Party as she said, “The national chairman of our party has not given me the authority, I don’t even receive alerts as the national treasurer of the party. So, what am I treasuring? I don’t even receive emails whatsoever pertaining the account. We got over N3.5 billion and I’m saying it with everything that I am saying it with.
