The Abia State chapter of the Labour Party has congratulated the newly elected National Working Committee led by Senator Nenadi Usman as National Chairman and Iheanacho Obioma as National Secretary.
Speaking shortly after the 2026 National Convention of the party in Umuahia, the state capital, on Tuesday, the Chairman of the party in the state, Peter Azubuike, described their emergence as a defining moment in the party’s quest to consolidate its growing national influence and internal stability.
Azubuike stated that the election of the new NWC members signalled renewed unity within the party.
He also paid glowing tribute to the outgoing interim leadership for what he described as “courageous and strategic efforts” in navigating the party through a turbulent period marked by internal disputes and political uncertainties.
He expressed confidence in the capacity of the new national leadership to reposition the party for greater success ahead of future electoral engagements.
He said, “The emergence of the new NWC presents a fresh opportunity to strengthen party structures, deepen internal democracy, and reinforce the Labour Party’s commitment to delivering people-oriented governance across Nigeria.
“I want to assure the national leadership of unwavering support from the Abia chapter. The state will remain a stronghold of the party and a model for progressive governance.
“Our commitment in Abia is total. We will work in close collaboration with the national leadership to ensure that the vision and objectives of the Labour Party are not only achieved but sustained. Abia will continue to play a strategic role in the growth and expansion of the party.”
Azubuike also thanked the Governor of Abia State, Alex Otti, for his support and commitment to the Labour Party, describing him as the party’s foremost ambassador and driving force behind its growing popularity and acceptance.
The chairman further commended party faithful across the state for their resilience, loyalty and steadfast belief in the ideals of the Labour Party, noting that their support has been instrumental in keeping the party united despite past challenges.
