2018 court judgment demands inclusive national convention, as Okafor challenges Abure's chairmanship appointment.

Former Labour Party deputy chair, Callistus Okafor, claims control over the party, citing a 2018 Federal High Court consent judgment not complied with. The judgment mandated an "inclusive" national convention, and Okafor alleges Julius Abure's appointment as national chairman was improper. Okafor plans to organize a fresh convention within six months to unite party factions, based on the court's judgment.
