The Labour Party (LP) has given its 2023 Presidential candidate, Mr. Peter Obi, and Abia State Governor Alex Otti a 72-hour ultimatum to withdraw their notice of a National Executive Council (NEC) meeting.
The party contends that neither Obi nor Otti has the authority to convene such a meeting on its behalf.
Earlier, Otti announced a stakeholder meeting of the party’s NEC scheduled for September 4 at the Government House in Umuahia, the Abia State capital. In response, the Labour Party, through a statement from its Publicity Secretary Dr. Abayomi Arabambi, denounced the move as unconstitutional.
