The National Chairman of the Labour Party, Julius Abure, announced that the party has overcome a major obstacle with the departure of its 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi. In his New Year’s message to party members, Abure expressed relief that the Labour Party is now free from the challenges that had been hindering its progress.
Abure noted that the party has formed a coalition with Nigerians and remains a viable alternative for achieving a prosperous nation. He described 2025 as a year of mixed emotions, during which the party faced numerous distractions from some of its leaders. Under his leadership, however, the Labour Party was able to surmount these difficulties and maintain a peaceful existence.
According to Abure, the party’s ability to move forward stems from breaking the “shackles of bondage” that had constrained it for over a year. This breakthrough reportedly occurred on 31 December 2025 in Enugu. The Labour Party’s resilience in overcoming internal challenges is seen as a positive step forward for a significant player in Nigerian politics.
With Peter Obi’s departure, the party now looks to build on its coalition with Nigerians. Abure’s message emphasized the Labour Party’s commitment to achieving a prosperous nation and its determination to remain a viable alternative to other political parties. As the party enters the new year, it is likely to focus on consolidating its position and preparing for future elections. Observers and Nigerians alike will watch closely as the Labour Party leverages its coalition and commitment to prosperity to play a significant role in shaping the country’s political landscape.
