Julius Abure, national chairman of the Labour Party (LP), says the party’s federal lawmakers have not made any financial contribution since the 2023 elections.
Abure spoke during a town hall meeting organised by the Lagos chapter of the party.
The LP national chairman also warned against the creation of parallel structures by some party leaders.
Abure said the LP has a single structure and that it is impossible for a party to survive with conflicting structures.
“It is a fact that they don’t respect the party, it is a fact that they don’t make contributions to the party,” Abure was quoted in a statement released by Obiora Ifoh, LP spokesperson.
“As I speak with you today, we have not received one kobo at the national level, from those we elected to the national assembly.
“The responsibility of running this party is still with the leadership of the party. As of today, we have 6 senators, about 30 reps members and numerous house of assembly members.
“But it will shock you to know that none of these lawmakers have contributed a dime to the party since their election in 2023.
