Barr Julius Abure, the National Chairman of the Labour Party in Nigeria, has articulated several important thoughts on good governance and the pressing need for change.   He reportedly  said, “It has always been my dream to lead the people of Nigeria to have good governance and to have a better life. Now that God has put the leadership in my hands and I am leading the struggle to liberate Nigerians, there is no reason why I should run away from that onerous responsibility and patriotic call to save Nigeria. I believe Nigeria can be better... we need to change the narrative of the country.” In a political landscape increasingly dominated by the insidious allure of state capture, where corruption and bad governance threaten the very fabric of our society, the Labour Party stands resolute as a beacon of hope and change. We are unapologetically committed to social democratic values, placing people at the heart of every decision. Our vision is bold and unwavering: to empower c...

With you, 2025 has been memorable. Yes, you were a source of inspiration through all your actions and inactions. Yes, I am more exposed to life evolutions and revelations. As the year 2025 winds up today, my heart is filled with gratitude.  I sincerely appreciate my friends, family, and all my well wishers who stood by me through thicks and thins. Your prayers, support, knocks, denials, advice, and encouragement made the journey meaningful and interesting. To those who doubted me, challenged me, or even misunderstood my positions at different circumstances, I thank you for bringing out the best in me.  You taught me resilience, self reflection, and the importance of staying true to myself.  Every experience, good or bad, played a role in shaping who I am throughout 2025. I also want to seek your forgiveness in whichever way my actions or inactions may have offended you. 

  STATEMENT FROM THE LABOUR PARTY LABOUR PARTY FINALLY LIBERATED BY PETER OBI'S DEFECTION  ... As Party asks forgiveness from Nigerians for fielding unfitting presidential candidate in 2023 The leadership of the Labour Party took note of the defection of its 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi and a few of his supporters to the African Democratic Congress, ADC. We also took note of the lacklustre speech Mr. Obi made at the occasion, and wondered what new he intends to sell to Nigerians.  For us in Labour Party, we wondered why it took them this long to make the move because we have since September 2024, parted ways with Peter Obi and some of his blind supporters in the National Assembly. We have patiently waited for this day. The party is finally liberated by this defection and as Party leaders, we count it as a blessing. It will be on record that the leadership of the Labour Party had since urged Obi and his disgruntled followers to exit the party if they were unable ...

 Watch my views on the purported invasion of Nigeria by the USA.  I think this is the time for us to join hands to defeat the monster, terrorism

 STATEMENT FROM THE LABOUR PARTY The attention of the leadership of the Labour Party has been called to a press statement purportedly signed by one Ken Enuma Asogwa who claimed to be a media aide to one Ms Nenadi Usman who is claiming to be the National Chairman of the Labour Party even when she is not a member of the Party.   The so called press statement was a clear attempt to blackmail the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the acting Chairman of INEC, Mrs May Agbamuche-Mbu  for obeying a validly issued court order. The statement was also crafted to embarrass His Lordship, the judge of the High court and as well to bring the court to public opprobrium and ridicule.  Ms Nenadi Usman, through her aide, Asogwa had called for the arrest of Mrs Agbamuche-Mbu for, according to them for 'criminally colluding with Barrister Julius Abure' to rightfully carry out her job in line with the laws governing the electoral commission.  We think that thi...

 20th OCTOBER, 2025 OFFICE OF THE NATIONAL YOUTH LEADER, LABOUR PARTY FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE  Our attention was brought to a press conference granted by an illegal group known as Forum of Labour Party Candidates made up of people who have been manoeuvring to destabilize the Labour Party, and seem to become the new militant wing of the illegal caretaker committee. Ordinarily, they do not deserve our attention as they are bound to scatter as usual, but for the purpose of public enlightenment, we deem this press release appropriate. For clarity sake, there is no such recognised forum of former candidates in the LP Constitution. The purported forum is populated by some chalaterns/individuals who could not even afford nomination fees in the last 2023 general election; some were placeholders, and some never even participated in any election. Those jobless individuals are holding on to the 2023 candidacy as their lifelong achievement, while serious politicians are earnestly preparing ...

 17th OCTOBER, 2025 PRESS RELEASE Recall that over a year ago, His Excellency Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu declared a National Youth Conference to be able to have a first hand detailed information of what the Nigerian Youths are demanding. One year down the line, the conference is yet to happen because the machineries of the execution enabled by the Minister of Youth Affairs, Hon Ayodele Olawande whose duty it is to coordinate the all important conference have turned such vital proclamation of Mr President to a parochial political elite-centric fanfare putpotedly to settle his party loyalists, personal friends, waste our scarce national financial resources, visibly due to his unimaginable but glaring incompetence in managing such a key position in the ministry of youth affairs.  We have carefully examined with utmost interest the activities of the un-inclusive planning Committee that was inaugurated months ago, and from all indications the agenda is far different from the expecta...
