Kehinde Edun, Legal Adviser to the Labour Party, has dismissed criminal allegations against the party’s National Chairman, Julius Abure, as unfounded.
Edun refuted claims made by suspended Deputy National Chairman, Lamidi Apapa, and members of his camp, stating that no charges have been filed against Abure or any other leaders of the party.
An FCT High Court recently assumed jurisdiction in a suit filed by the National Publicity Secretary of the party loyal to Apapa, Yomi Arabambi, and seven others against Abure. LP Legal Adviser, Edun, alleged that Apapa and others with him are hirelings in the party paid by the opposition to cause distraction in the party, adding that the opposition is attacking the party because they have seen it has the potential of ending the old order.
