Arrest Video: Labour Party Gives Correct Position On National Chairman, Abure
The leadership of the Labour Party has described a video being broadcast by those it described as renegade former members of the party led by Lamidi Apapa where it was claimed that the National Chairman, Barrister Julius Abure was arrested as fake.
The 10-second video reportedly published by the former Youth Leader of the party, Anselem Eragbe contains images of Police officers who were arguing among themselves over an unexplained matter. Neither Abure nor any of our leaders appeared on the video.
“The security agencies are not after Abure and have no reason whatsoever to seek for his arrest. If they need his attention, they will invite him personally or even through his several security details,” the party’s national publicity secretary, Obiorah Ifoh said in a stamtent made available to GWG.ng
Further debunking the arrest video as pertaining to Abure, Ifoh said:
“For the record, Abure attended the court session today at the ongoing Presidential Appeal Tribunal and he is presently attending to some official engagements.
“Nigerians must by now know the capacity of the Apapa group to misinform and propagate fake news. We therefore ask Nigerians to disregard yet another attempt by these renegades to smear the character of our distinguished chairman,” the party said in dismissing the video on the arrest of Abure as fake.
