The embattled National Chairman of the Labour Party (LP), Julius Abure paid a visit to FCT Minister Nyesom Wike in Abuja.
The meeting was confirmed on Sunday by Wike’s aide, Lere Olayinka.
The development comes amid an internal crisis within the Labour Party.
Earlier this month, Abure’s faction of the party issued an ultimatum demanding that Peter Obi, the party’s 2023 presidential candidate, leave the party within 48 hours after Obi joined the ADC-led coalition. The party has also announced its intention to expel the former governor.
In response, the faction loyal to Obi, led by Nenadi Usman, countered that the national leadership had officially sanctioned Obi’s participation in the coalition. She labelled Abure’s faction as illegitimate and politically motivated.
On July 2, 2025, leading opposition politicians, including Obi, Atiku Abubakar, Rauf Aregbesola, and David Mark, officially launched the coalition under the ADC umbrella.
