The Labour Party Takes Action Against Governor Alex Otti Over party Misconduct Allegations
Labour Party Initiates Disciplinary Panel to Investigate Governor Otti's Conduct
In a recent move, the Julius Abure-led Labour Party established a disciplinary committee to delve into the anti-party activities of Governor Alex Otti of Abia State. This decision was reached during the National Executive Council (NEC) meeting, held on May 2, 2025, in Abuja.
According to our reports, Governor Otti's comments perceived as derogatory towards the Labour Party sparked the investigation. In a public appearance, he referred to the party's leader, Abure, in less-than-respectful terms.
The disciplinary committee, headed by Dr. Ayo Olorunfemi, includes notable members such as Alhaji Umar Farouk Ibrahim, Barrister Kehinde Edun, Mrs. Dudu Manuga, and Barrister Callistus Ihejiagwa. Their mission is to investigate the alleged anti-party activities within two weeks and make subsequent recommendations.
The Labour Party, through this action, demonstrates its commitment to maintaining discipline and assuring adherence to the party's constitution and values. Moreover, the party rejected the prospect of forming coalitions or alliances ahead of the 2027 general elections, expressing determination to field candidates who align with the party's principles.
Governor Otti responded to the news by dismissing Julius Abure as the chairman of the party, indicating potential internal conflicts within the Labour Party.
This investigation comes at a critical juncture as the Labour Party strives to solidify its position before future elections, navigating the complexities of party politics.
