Labour Party Draws the Line: “No Room for Traitors” Ahead of 2025 Elections. By Raymond Enoch
In a fiery display of political resolve, the Labour Party has sent a clear and uncompromising message to its members: loyalty or leave. The South West Geopolitical Zone Town Hall Meeting, held in Abuja over the weekend, became a rallying cry for party unity and discipline as the 2025 elections loom large.
Spearheading the charge was the party’s National Youth Leader, Kenedy Ahukaonye, who delivered a hard-hitting statement on behalf of National Chairman, Barrister Julius Abure. “The party will not hesitate to expel saboteurs,” Abure warned, emphasizing that internal betrayal would no longer be tolerated.
The meeting, which gathered aspirants vying for the FCT Area Council Chairmanship and Councilorship positions, served as both a strategy session and a stern warning. At its core was a call for ideological purity and strict adherence to party constitution. “This is not just politics; this is about the future of a movement,” Abure stressed.
Echoing this, the National Deputy Chairman underscored that the 2025 electoral cycle would not be “business as usual.” He urged party screening committees to be vigilant, insisting that only aspirants of proven integrity would be allowed to contest under the Labour Party banner.
The local dimension of the meeting also took center stage. The FCT Labour Party Chairman made a passionate appeal for unity, noting that internal divisions could jeopardize potential victories in key battleground councils such as Kuje, Bwari, and AMAC.
Amid the stern warnings, the gathering also highlighted aspirant support for the party’s renewed focus on ethics. Prominent figures like High Chief Mayor and Tochi Nzeh pledged clean, people-centered campaigns, grounded in dignity and trust.
As the 2025 elections approach, the Labour Party’s tone is unmistakable—there’s a new order taking shape, one that leaves no room for betrayal. The town hall wasn’t just a meeting; it was a moment of reckoning. The party is drawing a bold red line against opportunism—and this time, it means business.
