The leadership of the Labour Party has expressed relief and excitement following the official recognition of its Interim National Leadership, headed by Senator Nenadi Usman, as the legitimate leadership of the party by the Independent National Electoral Commission.
The party commended the current leadership of INEC for upholding the rule of law, justice and constitutional order, noting that the commission demonstrated strict adherence to the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“We believe this development brings to an end the prolonged distractions and internal uncertainties the party has endured over the past year. We therefore call on our teeming members across the federation to unite and support the interim leadership as it works assiduously to reposition the party for victory in the forthcoming elections”.
The Labour Party further reaffirmed its position as a major opposition party, stressing its continued commitment to offering Nigerians a credible, people-focused alternative platform.
“Achieving this goal requires unity, dedication, and collective sacrifice from all stakeholders.
“We extend our profound gratitude to our supporters nationwide for their resilience, steadfastness, and unwavering belief in the struggle. We also commend the judiciary for consistently upholding justice as the last hope of the common man, and appreciate the Nigerian media for remaining principled and steadfast in the pursuit of truth and fairness.
“As we intensify efforts to rebuild and strengthen our structures nationwide, we appeal for the patience and continued support of Nigerians. Conscious of the limited time before the next election cycle, the party assures the public of its resolve to work tirelessly to restore the Labour Party to winning ways and achieve its set objectives in the shortest possible time”.
