Upon making his decision in an ex-parte motion argued by James Onoja, Judge Hamza Muazu imposed the restraining order.

The National Chairman of the Labour Party, Julius Abure, the National Secretary, Farouk Ibrahim, and two other individuals are not permitted to pose as national executives of the party, according to a Federal Capital Territory High Court judgement.

The National Organising Secretary, Clement Ojukwu, and the Treasurer, Oluchi Opara, were both prohibited from posing as national officers.

Upon making his decision in an ex-parte motion argued by James Onoja, Judge Hamza Muazu imposed the restraining order.

In a petition, Onoja detailed to the court how the constrained National officials allegedly faked a number of FCT High Court documents to conduct illegal replacements during the most recent general election.

The receipts, seal, and affidavits of the Court to engage in illegal activity were among the documents.

The Senior Counsel also presented a number of documents, revealing to the Judge that the Chief Registrar of the Court had written to the Labour Party to request that it renounce certain documents that were allegedly utilised in criminal activity by Abure and three other people.

The four individuals will be arraigned in court following their indictment by a police inquiry, according to Onoja, who also said that warrants for their arrest had already been acquired.

Judge Muazu issued a succinct judgement, concluding that the application and the affidavits in favour of it provide a strong case for the request’s approval.

The Judge then ruled that the four individuals must stop impersonating National Officials of the Labour Party right away.
