The pronouncement of no more fuel subsidy sparks of being insensitive to the plight of Nigerians - Labour party Lagos

-

The new crop of political leaders have been admonished to choose their words wisely as in the popular Yoruba proverb that Ọ̀rọ̀ rírọ̀ ni í yọ obì lápò, ọ̀rọ̀ líle nií yọ ọfà lápó when interpreted in English signifies that soft words can pull kolanuts from a pouch, as much as strong words do pull arrows from a quiver. 

This admonition came forth from the charismatic caretaker chairman of Labour party in Lagos, Omoba Adesoyin Olumide on Monday via an interview session that was conducted by hon Okufuwa Samad Oluwatoyin the partys public relations officer.

Omoba Adesoyin Olumide denounced the maiden speech by the newly inuagurated APC government led by president Bola Ahmed Tinubu and described the approach and announcement of the cancelation of fuel subsidy as rather harsh, ill-timed and unnecessary.

Furthermore, Omoba Adesoyin Olumide added that as leaders we should understand that the powers inherent in spoken words have to be carefully articulated so as not to abuse or hurt the sensibilities of the populace no matter the good gesture or intention it hopes to achieve either in the short or long run.

Subsequently, Omoba Adesoyin Olumide reminded the APC led government of it's activities and days of organised protests against the then Federal government that was led by the former president Good luck Jonathan against this same fuel subsidy arrangement and wondered what suddenly changed? 

Finally, the politician ended his interview by counselling the proponents of the cancellation of the fuel subsidy to take up a more cautious and meticulous approach to properly orientate Nigerians on the merits and demerits of this policy and it's plans towards ameliorating the adverse effect on their lives and general well being.

RE: "I did not promise to build Labour party" Peter Obi is an epitome of dishonesty and a serial betrayal - Arabambi

Our attention has been drawn to a statement that was credited to HE Peter obi, the labour party presidential candidate at the 2023 general elections.   While addressing Nigerians on X space,  Peter obi was quoted as saying that "we promised to build Nigeria, we did not promise to build a New Labour Party". We find that statement to be shocking, appalling, awful, disgraceful, horrible and extremely shameful.  However we must state that we are not surprised at his comment especially as he had always exhibited acts of betrayal, disloyalty, treachery and outright breach of trust. Consequently, the labour party Nigeria will like to tender an unreserved apology to all Nigerians and especially all members of labour party for our indescretion, miscalculation, mistake and error of allowing a serial betrayal, insincere and dishonest individual to desecrate our well respected and Honourable platform to take advantage of innocent and unsuspecting populace. Accordingly, despite t...

LETTER OF LABOUR PARTY BOARD OF TRUSTEES TO INEC........ THIS IS WHY INEC STOPPED RECOGNISING ABURE AS THE NATIONAL CHAIRMAN OF LABOUR PARTY The Nigeria Labour Congress has written the Independent National Electoral Commission, urging it to halt any support for the national convention of the Labour Party scheduled for March 27, 2024. In a Friday letter addressed to the Chairman of INEC, Mahmood Yakubu, the NLC accused the Chairman of the Labour Party, Mr Julius Abure, and his associates of planning an illegal convention in defiance of court orders. The NLC’s solicitors, Falana and Falana’s Chambers, in the letter dated March 22, 2024, highlighted the illegality of such a gathering, citing previous court rulings that declared the Labour Party’s status and ordered inclusive conventions. The NLC, in the letter signed by Marshal Abubakar, threatened legal action if INEC failed to comply with the demand to prevent what they deemed a breach of justice and the rule of law. The congress’ lette...

Ignore all machinations, Sola Ebiseni remains the Governorship candidate of Labour Party. Once again, the Labour Party Campaign Organisation is inundated with calls on the purported replacement of Chief Sola Ebiseni, our Governorship candidate, with Ayo Olorunfemi less than 24 hours to the Ondo State Governorship election tomorrow. Contrary to the false report, the candidacy of Ebiseni was the decision of the Party presided over by the National Working Committee led by Julius Abure of which Ayo Olorunfemi is a member after the latter, who was a placeholder, voluntarily withdrew his candidacy backed with sworn affidavit, an undisputed fact confirmed by the Courts. For the umpteenth time and avoidance of doubt, Ayo Olorunfemi was not a party to any of the cases either at the High Court or the Court of Appeal and his Appeal as an Interested party was dismissed. There is no subsisting order of any court directing the INEC to remove or replace the name of Chief Olusola Nehemiah Ebiseni and ...
