  Supreme Court Removes Julius Abure as Labour Party Chairman The Supreme Court has nullified the decision of the Court of Appeal in Abuja that recognized Julius Abure as the National Chairman of the Labour Party. Delivering a unanimous verdict on Friday, a five-member panel of the apex court ruled that the Court of Appeal lacked jurisdiction to declare Abure as chairman, as the matter centered on internal party leadership—a subject courts are not permitted to adjudicate. The court also noted that Abure's tenure had already expired. The appeal, filed by Senator Esther Nenadi Usman and another, was upheld, while a cross-appeal by the Abure-led faction was dismissed for lacking merit. More details to follow.

Plateau gov, Mutfwang, swears in 17 transitional LG chairmen

He also explained that the state government, after careful study of the recommendations, resolved to suspend the chairmen in order to conduct an efficient and proper investigation into the development


During the swearing in ceremony, the governor urged the transition chairmen to cooperate with the PLHA and ensure that all documents required for the investigation were provided for appropriate action.


“This administration will not condone any form of indiscipline, you are expected to stabilise the LGA council and not see it as an opportunity to amass wealth.


“Also remember that this is a transitional administration that can give way any time government chooses,” he said.


Responding, the Chairman of Wase LG, Hamisu Anani, assured the governor that they would abide by the rules and regulations governing the local government and work for the progress of the state.


The interim chairmen include: Mr Markus Hussaini, Jos East; Mr Sati Shuwa, Riyom; Mr Peter VwangDung, Jos South; Mr Fidelis Adara, Bassa; Mr Danjuma Guda, Barkin Ladi; Mr Istifanus John, Jos North; Mr Markus Artu, Mangu; Mr Monday Kassa, Bokkos.
