Supreme Court Sacks Abure As LP Chairman

The Supreme Court of Nigeria has nullified the judgement of the Court of Appeal in Abuja recognizing Mr. Julius Abure as the National Chairman of the Labour Party (LP).

In a unanimous judgement on Friday, April 4, 2025, a five-member panel of the Supreme Court held that the Court of Appeal lacked the jurisdiction to have pronounced Mr. Abure as the party's National Chairman having earlier found that the substance of the case was about the party’s leadership. The apex court declared that the issue of leadership is an internal affair of a party over which courts lacked jurisdiction.

The court however added that Mr. Abure’s tenure had since expired. The Supreme Court allowed the appeal filed by Senator Ester Nenadi Usman and one other, hence pronounced that it was meritorious.

It proceeded to dismiss the cross-appeal filed by the Mr. Abure faction of the LP for being unmeritorious.
