Aisha Yesufu has reflected on the internal crisis within the Labour Party, recalling the dispute between Peter Obi and former party leadership over the conduct of party congresses.….......
In a post on her X handle, she noted that the core disagreement was Obi’s insistence that ward, local government, and state congresses should be conducted before a national convention, stressing that due process remained essential in any democratic structure, even when it may not be personally favourable.
She argued that adherence to due process promotes transparency and accountability within political parties, adding that recent developments in the African Democratic Congress (ADC), which completed its own ward, local government, and state congresses before holding its national convention, reminded her of that principle.
She wrote, “I woke up this morning and remembered that all Mr Peter Obi asked of Abure in Labour Party was that ward, local Government and State congresses must be done before the National Convention.
“That was the bone of all that contention!
“Nothing beats due process, even if it will not favour you, follow it!
“It keeps things transparent and accountable.
“Seeing ADC conclude its ward, LG and State congresses before the National Convention reminded me of it.”
