Callistus Okafor, a former deputy chair south of the Labour Party , says he’s now in charge of the affairs of the party.
Mr Okafor hinged his declaration on a 2018 consent judgment of the federal high court which he claimed has not been obeyed.
Addressing a press conference in Abuja on Friday, Mr Okafor said the convention ordered by the judge was not obeyed and it was on that faulty structure Julius Abure became national chairman.
Sequel to the development, members of the 2014 National Working Committee who are beneficiaries of the consent judgment have agreed to midwife an all-inclusive and expansive convention in compliance with the Consent Judgment delivered by Hon Justice G.O. Kolawole, and further agreed to within six months.
The former deputy chair, who was in the national working committee , NWC with Salam, said he is taking over the party because he and his group are beneficiaries of that judgment.
