Senator Nenadi Usman, the chairman of the Labour Party National Caretaker Committee (LP-NCC), has stated that she hopes to leave the Labour Party with a legacy of unity.
Usman agreed that it is a lofty, challenging order, but one that is doable provided all parties involved uphold the principles of the party’s founding fathers, embrace the spirit of forgiveness, and work closely together as a single family embarking on a shared destiny.
The acting head of the committee said in a statement, “The legacy I desire to be remembered for is that I met a Labour Party in relative conflict and disunity but left it a united, formidable, and indomitable elections winning party nationwide.” Eyes Of Lagos reports,
“This is a tall, demanding order,” she went on. However, it is possible if we embrace the idea of everyone forgiving the wrongs done in the past, uphold the principles set forth by our party’s founders, and work together as a cohesive family as we embark on our shared destiny.
No team, group, or division within the party was defeated, according to Usman, who also stated that no division or group should feel defeated or ashamed following the September 4 party assembly in Umuahia, the state capital of Abia.
In the worst case scenario, the commission might have been forced to deregister our party from their websites and bar us from participating in any elections. September 4, at Umuahia, that course of action was successfully avoided.
For this reason, I declare that there was no defeat and that all those who genuinely identify as members of the Labour Party are co-victors of our party’s resurrection at Umuahia.
She pleaded with all parties involved in the division to put down their swords and give them up completely.
“Achieve this by turning them into sickles and peace ploughshares for our party’s eventual 2027 presidential triumph and harvests of progress.” Just thirty months from now, on February 2027, if I may remind you.
“That is almost exactly thirty days away in politics, given the harsh and difficult waters our Labour Party ship, as the opposition party, must navigate and the volume of work that needs to be done in this time frame.
“My committee will embrace those who accept the peace olive branch extended by our committee and collaborate with us to progress our party quickly. The finest we have to offer will go to those who steadfastly pursue a course that impedes progress by encouraging division, conflict, collision, and chaos.
Lastly, I beg you to keep in mind this timeless fact about the front lines of battle. No matter how long it takes, the troops of freedom who hold fast to their beliefs, work together rationally, and battle from the trenches as a brotherhood will undoubtedly emerge victorious and triumphant against oppression. In light of this, I welcome anyone who want to join our party.
“Please step forward and let’s discuss the ultimate mandate of my committee rationally. This is the directive to provide our party with model state congresses that unite the country in around three months.
“This will culminate in an open, inclusive, and transparent national convention that will yield our party’s next substantive NEC and NWC, and ultimately, our great nation’s next leadership,” the speaker continued.
