NLC Locks LP Secretariat, Demands Abure’s Sacking

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) on Wednesday stormed the national secretariat of the Labour Party in Abuja to protest the party’s national convention planned for end of this month.

The congress also demanded the sacking of the National Chairman of the party, Julius Abure.

The NLC leadership accused Abure of intending to hold a “secret” convention without the inputs of key stakeholders.

The planned convention has pitched Abure against the NLC and the House of Representatives caucus.

The workers further accused Abure of planning to destroy the Labour Party.

Policemen have refused the protesting workers entry into the party secretariat.
