National Publicity Secretary of the party, Obiora Ifoh, said this in a statement, in Abuja, on Tuesday.
According to him, the court’s decisions were contained “In a judgement made by Justice Emeka Nwite, (who) while delivering the judgement, went further to compel the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to grant due recognition and all privileges to the Labour Party’s National Working Committee as led by Barrister Julius Abure.”
