The National Chairman of the Labour Party, Julius Abure, who was arrested alongside other party members in Benin City, has been released from custody. The arrest, prompted by a petition from the LP Youth Leader loyal to a factional chairman, raised questions about internal party disputes.
Abure, addressing supporters, expressed gratitude for solidarity and outlined the challenges faced, emphasizing that investigations are ongoing.
This development adds a layer of complexity to the party's preparations for the upcoming gubernatorial polls in Edo State.
