Edo 2024: How Labour Party Candidate Will Emerge – Abure
THE National Chairman of the Labour Party (LP), Julius Abure has affirmed that the party’s governorship candidate for Edo State will emerge through a democratic process insisting that the party has not endorsed any candidate for the polls.
He made the assertion as he disclosed that the crisis in the state chapter of the party has been resolved and that the door of the party is open for everyone who has interest in joining it.
Abure who is from Edo State spoke in Benin-City following his two-day thank you visit to Edo State.
“I came to thank everybody in Edo State for their support during the election, I started the visit from my Ward 3 Esan North East, where I met with all the leaders of the party. I want to thank them, because in my Ward, I won all the elections, both the Presidential and House of Assembly Elections, though it was marred with irregularities, I won all.
On the crisis rocking the party after the election, he said, “we have set up committee to look at the problem of Labour Party in Edo State and resolved the problems and I have said that our doors are open to our members and I want to make it categorically clear that I have not endorsed anybody for Edo 2024 governorship election.
On how the Labour Party’s candidate for the Edo governorship election will emerge, Abure said:
“The Labour Party Primaries that will produce the candidate is going to be competitive; it is going to be transparent. Our problem with PDP and APC is that they lack internal party democracy, that will produce the candidate that has the pedigree, the capacity and competency to anchor our affairs as a nation and that has landed us in the problem we are today.
“Therefore as an emerging political party, who believe that we should change the political narrative. We cannot be seen doing the same thing. Members and delegates of the Labour Party will decide who becomes the party candidate for the Edo 2024 election.”
