An Abia State High Court sitting in Ukwa Judicial Division
has affirmed the leadership of Emmanuel Otti as the Chairman of Labour Party,
LP in Abia State.
The Court also restrained Prince G.O. Ndubueze from parading
himself as the Abia State Chairman of LP or interfering with the activities of
Otti in Abia LP.
The Court declared that the suspension from office slammed
on Emmanuel Otti by the Julius Abure-led faction based on the 2024 constitution
of the party was unlawful, unconstitutional and of no legal effect.
The Abia High Court further ruled that the 2024 constitution
of LP used by Julius Abure in suspending Emmanuel Otti has not been duly
recognised or ratified by the Independent National Electoral Commission as
required under the Law.
Before the ruling, two factions of LP leadership claimed
control of the party, with Emmanuel Otti supporting the Governor Alex
Otti/Peter Obi family, while Prince G.O. Ndubueze pledged loyalty to the Julius
Abure-led camp.
