Jilius Abure, the factional head of the Labour Party (LP), has stated that the party is for people who don’t have a voice and aren’t often acknowledged in the grand scheme of things.

During the Directorate of Physically Challenged Persons’ inauguration on Thursday in Abuja, Abure stated that the party is distinct from other political parties.

Abure claimed that the Labour Party supports and empowers disabled individuals, using the example of a commercial motorcyclist known as a “okada man” who won a seat in the House of Representatives in the general elections of 2023.

“We have our goals rooted in social democracy, the party is for those who have no voice. The party is for those who ordinary will not be recognized in the scheme of things, and that’s why we have made deliberate efforts to see that those people who are disabled either because of their gender, because of their sex, either because of their physical condition, or they have disability financially or one way or the other, we look out for those people and empower them, and that’s why, that’s why you find that it is only a Labour Party that an Okada rider can become a member of the House of Representatives.

“Those with disabilities are not just those who have physical disabilities. If you want to run for an office, you have the potential to develop your community. You will have what it takes. You have the leadership capacity, the traits, the leadership qualities. You are passionate about the growth and development of your community, but because of the very exploitative character in Nigeria, the exploitative character of the way politics is played, you are disabled, the Labor Party is the destination.

“We want to make sure that those with physical disabilities are taken care of. And if we see the Labour Party is different, believe that charity should begin at home. If we say we are going to change the country, we believe that the change should begin with us as a ward Chairman. We want to change Nigeria, you must change yourself first,” he said.
