    Abia LG Poll: Crisis Rocks Labour Party Over Who Should Sell Nomination Forms

    Ahead of the November 2 Local Government election in Abia State, the state chapter of the Labour Party has called on the public to disregard an announcement by the party’s former chairman, Mr Ceekay Igara, regarding the sale of nomination forms.

    In a statement issued on Wednesday, the party’s acting chairman in the state, Mr Emmanuel Otti, urged party members to obtain their nomination forms from the Labour Party secretariat in Umuahia, the state capital.

    Otti emphasized that all official statements or instructions concerning the party’s activities in the state must come from the Caretaker Committee.

    He added that any contrary information should be regarded as an act of impersonation and reported to the appropriate authorities.

    The statement read,”The attention of the Labour Party, Abia State chapter has been drawn to a radio announcement issued by the former chairman of the Labour Party in the state, Mr. Ceekay Igara directing members of the public on where to purchase nomination forms for the Party’s Primaries ahead of the forthcoming Local Government Election in the state.

    “The public is hereby enjoined to disregard the unauthorised and misleading announcement because Mr Igara’s tenure had expired alongside other members of the state and National Working Committees led by Julius Abure, which prompted the Independent National Electoral Commission to cease to recognise them. It is on this basis that the party set up a National Caretaker Committee chaired by Senator Esther Nenadi Usman.

    “The Labour Party in  Abia State is not interested in extorting members of the public nor obtaining money from them by trick, hence we are poised to ensure that the sale of forms and selection of candidates is done in a responsible, orderly and peaceful manner to ensure that peace reigns even after the exercise”.

    Meanwhile, the Labour Party has announced its schedule of activities for the Local Government election primary election in the state.

    Otti stated that the sale of nomination/expression of interest forms would commence on Wednesday, October 2, 2024.

    It added that the submission of completed forms and screening of aspirants will take on Thursday, October 3, while the primary election for chairmanship and Counselorship candidates will be held on Friday, October 4, 2024.
