Chieftain of the Labour Party (LP), Kenneth Okonkwo, has accused the executive led by Julius Abure of being workers of iniquity.

Okonkwo referred to the LP executive under Abure as “a secret society led by a group of clowns.”

If the LP stays on a “trajectory where they cannot even hold an acceptable national convention,” the former presidential spokesman promised to dissolve the organisation.

During a Symfoni news platform interview on Thursday, Okonkwo stated: “My own Labour Party is not impressing me. Assuming they continue on this trajectory where they cannot even hold an acceptable national convention, then you’d tell me I’d be there?

“Those people are clowns. It is the greatest joke I have ever seen in a political party and then you want to position yourself as a party of integrity. You cannot give what you don’t have.

“Aburi and his cohorts, their tenure is over. Let Aburi and his cohorts get behind me. They are workers of iniquity. I don’t rate them. That executive is in charge of the secret society. They should be apprehended.”

Since 2023, when Lamidi Apapa, the party’s deputy national chairman, proclaimed himself the acting national chairman, LP has been embroiled in a leadership crisis.

The crisis worsened in 2024 when Abure was re-elected as party chairman at the Anambra national conference.
