Nigerian actor cum politician, Kenneth Okonkwo has blamed Julius Abure, the National Chairman of the Labour Party (LP), for the rising number of defections in the party.

Okonkwo, in a statement on Thursday via his X account, said the defections are a testament to the loss of confidence in Abure’s leadership.

He urged Abure to resign as the National Chairman of the Labour Party so the party can emerge as a main opposition party capable of defeating the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 elections.

“The defection of @NgLabour elected members clearly indicate a loss of confidence in Abure and the army of his incompetent, corrupt, and confused leadership of @NgLabour.

“Abure still has a chance to salvage whatever tattered reputation he has bequeathed to @NgLabour by resigning from any purported leadership of @NgLabour to allow for a new leadership that will bring about the needed reforms to position @NgLabour to become the main opposition party capable of wresting power from the ruling @OfficialAPCNg,” Okonkwo submitted.

The admonition follows shortly after it was reported that the Labour Party (LP) had suffered a significant setback as its governorship candidate for the last Bayelsa State election, Udengs Eradiri, along with his running mate, retired Commodore Benjamin Nathus, announced their resignation from the party.

According to reports, several local government chairmen of the Labour Party in Bayelsa also followed suit, aligning with Eradiri and Nathus in their decision to leave the party.

Several lawmakers have also dumped the Labour Party for the APC in recent days.
