Labour Party, LP, has moved against its National Treasurer, Ms Oluchi Opara, following her allegations against the National Chairman of the party, Mr. Julius Abure.
Opara had accused Abure of misappropriating the funds of the party, an allegation the party described as malicious and untrue.
LP National Publicity Secretary, Obiora Ifoh, in a statement on Tuesday, said:
“Arising from the emergency meeting of the National Working Committee of the Labour Party, the leadership of the party has set up a disciplinary committee to try the National Treasurer, Ms Oluchi Opara for bringing the party to disrepute and misinforming the general public on the internal affairs of the party against the rules and regulations of the party.
“At the meeting held Tuesday evening February 13, 2024, in Abuja, and presided over by the Deputy National Chairman, Mrs. Ladi Iliya, the party extends an invitation to the National Treasurer to appear before it on February 14, 2024, by 10a.m., at the Conference Hall of the party National Headquarters.
“The party leadership is also calling on the teaming members of the party to be patient with it while it also assures that the ill wind will soon be resolved,” the statement added.
