Abure emerged victorious after getting the unanimous support of the party’s delegatest the national convention which took place recently in Nnewi, Anambra State.
Abia State Deputy Governor and Chairman of the LP national convention committee, Ikechukwu Emetu, announced the outcome of the exercise to the delight of the party’s supporters at the venue.
Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Federal High Court, Abuja, had earlier refused to restrain Abure from conducting the party’s national convention.
The ruling was given by the judge in a suit filed by a member of the party, Chief Chidozie Ezeugwa, and three others.
In the suit marked: FHC/ABJ/CS/383/2024, the plaintiffs urged the court to grant an interlocutory injunction restraining the respondents from conducting the LP convention, among other reliefs.
Ekwo in his ruling ordered the plaintiff to put all the respondents on notice of the ex-parte application moved by his lawyer, Ammeh Ammeh.
