The leadership of the Labour Party has accused the Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Nkiruka Onyejeocha, of colluding with a faction to perpetuate a crisis within the party. The dispute stems from the outcome of the Isiukwuato Umunneochi Federal Constituency election, where INEC initially declared the Labour Party candidate, Amobi Ogah, as the winner. However, this decision was nullified by a National Assembly Election Petitions Tribunal. The Labour Party leadership alleges that the Minister’s actions are driven by her loss in the election and her quest to overturn the result. Onyejeocha’s spokesperson has dismissed the allegations, urging the party to address its internal issues.
