ABUJA (PRECISE POST) – The Labour Party Senator Representing the Federal Capital Territory, Ireti Kingibe has commended the Supreme Court for its recent ruling on the leadership crisis facing the party, saying the verdict is a clear affirmation of the rule of law and a reinforcement of democratic values at a critical time in the party’s journey.
Reacting in a statement released on her X account for the first time since Friday’s ruling of the apex court, Senator Kingibe said the judgment provides the Labour Party with a much-needed opportunity to unite under purposeful and capable leadership. Stressing that she believes that under the stewardship of the caretaker committee led by Senator Nenadi Usman, the future of the Labour Party is bright.
“We trust in her proven capacity to warehouse and birth a new, forward-looking leadership that will guide the party with integrity, vision, and inclusivity, Ireti said.”
She Continued: “This is a pivotal moment to rebuild trust within the party, reestablish our structures, and lay the foundation for a stronger, more focused movement. Senator Usman’s leadership offers a unique opportunity to reset the party’s direction, grounded in transparency, unity, and the collective interest of our members and supporters.”
“Crucially, the integration of the Obidient movement into the Labour Party is not only welcome—it is essential. The passion, innovation, and commitment of the Obidient base reflect the democratic awakening of millions of Nigerians. By embracing and institutionalizing this movement, we will build a broader, more representative platform that speaks to the hopes of a new generation.”
“I call on all members of the Labour Party, both old and new—to come together in the spirit of renewal. Let us set aside divisions and focus on the shared mission of delivering good governance, social justice, and a better future for all Nigerians.”
“Together, under capable leadership and guided by the principles of democracy and the rule of law, we will move forward, stronger and more united than ever.”
