Supreme Court ruling dismissing Abure faction is a victory for the rule of law - LP Caretaker Chairman, Senator Usman

BY SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT

The recent ruling by the Supreme Court, which allowed the appeal filed by Senator Nenadi Usman—declaring it meritorious—while dismissing the cross-appeal filed by the Abure faction of the Labour Party as unmeritorious, is a victory for the rule of law and a significant milestone for our democracy.

A statement by Senator Nenadi E. Usman, Chairman, Labour Party Caretaker Committee, made available to Daily News Nigeria on Friday, stated, “It is important to emphasize that this is not a time for triumphalism—there is no victor and no vanquished. What matters most is our shared commitment to the ideals and aspirations of the Labour Party and the Nigerian people. We must now come together, united in purpose and vision, to move the party forward.

According to Usman, “The Labour Party remains one indivisible family, steadfast in its mission to create a New Nigeria founded on justice, equity, and people-centred governance.

“We call on all party members, supporters, and stakeholders to remain calm, focused, and committed to the democratic ideals that bind us.

“A New Nigeria is POssible!
