@ObidientUpdate KINDLY LET'S RAISE THIS. THERE'S A STRONG NEED TO PUT A QUESTION FORTH TO MR. PETER OBI ABOUT HIM, LAWMAKERS, AND OTHERS DEFECTING TO THE ADC
2day, Wednesday 10/09/2025, @inecnigeria has officially recognized D David Mark-led African Democratic Congress ADC as D authentic leadership of D party. I humbly advocate for D recognition of D @SenNenadiUsman led Labour Party to align with D April 4th Supreme Court’s judgment
From the Desk of Senator Nenadi Usman, PhD
I WELCOME THE FEDERAL HIGH COURT JUDGMENT IN SUIT NO. FHC/ABJ/CS/1523/2025 AND INEC’S SWORN CONFIRMATION OF THE EXPIRATION OF MR. JULIUS ABURE’S TENURE AS NATIONAL CHAIRMAN OF THE LABOUR PARTY
I received with profound relief and deep satisfaction the news of the judgment of the Federal High Court, Abuja, in Suit No. FHC/ABJ/CS/1523/2025, which today dismissed in its entirety the case instituted by Mr. Julius Abure against the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). This decision stands as yet another unambiguous and authoritative affirmation of the rule of law and the judiciary’s steadfast consistency in upholding the binding pronouncements of the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
This latest judgment aligns squarely with the earlier decision of the Supreme Court, delivered on 4 April 2025 in Appeal No. SC/CV/56/2025, which unequivocally nullified all previous recognitions of Mr. Abure’s purported leadership of the Labour Party. In its wisdom - and in strict adherence to the Supreme Court’s final pronouncement - the Federal High Court in Abuja rightly struck out the originating suit for want of jurisdiction. That decision of the apex court remains binding on all persons and authorities in Nigeria pursuant to Section 287 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
I must also commend the Independent National Electoral Commission for the clarity, courage, and institutional integrity reflected in its Counter Affidavit during the pendency of the case. In that sworn testimony before the court, INEC categorically confirmed that the tenure of Mr. Abure, along with that of the entire National Executive Committee, expired in June 2024. The Commission further affirmed that it neither monitored nor recognised the purported National Convention held in Nnewi on 27 March 2024, having found it to be in flagrant breach of the 1999 Constitution (as amended), the Electoral Act 2022, INEC’s own Regulations and Guidelines for Political Parties 2022, and the Labour Party Constitution.
This unequivocal position, rendered under oath by the nation’s electoral umpire before a competent court of law, removes all lingering doubts and reinforces the imperative for every member, officer, and stakeholder of our great party to submit, at all times, to the supremacy of our Constitution and the dictates of the rule of law.
With this judgment - and INEC’s clear, unambiguous stance - it is time for all members of the Labour Party to put this needless distraction behind us and to recommit ourselves to the urgent task of rebuilding and repositioning our party into the credible, disciplined, and people-centred political movement that Nigerians deserve.
Under my leadership as Interim National Chairman, I remain unwavering in my commitment to ensuring strict compliance with our party’s Constitution, entrenching transparent internal democratic processes, and restoring unity, discipline, and shared purpose as we prepare for the political contests ahead.

Peter Obi's influence is expanding into Northern Nigeria, thanks in part to Malam Nasir El-Rufai's efforts in building & strengthening structures across the region. This development could potentially boost Obi's national appeal & pave the way for a stronger presence in the North

@ParallelFacts#PeterObiOnParallelFacts Great to meet with and listen to His Excellency Mr. Peter Obi this evening. There's been speculation about Peter Obi potentially joining a coalition of political parties in Nigeria as a running mate. Can you confirm the accuracy of this information?
