The Labour Party, LP, faction led by Senator Nenadi Usman has demanded the arrest of the Acting Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, Mrs May Agbamuche-Mbu, accusing her of engaging in criminal collaboration with Julius Abure.

Usman made the call in a statement issued in Abuja on Thursday, titled "INEC’s Acting Chair in Criminal Collusion with Julius Abure Over Fake Court Order – She Must Be Arrested,” and signed by the Interim National Spokesman of the party, Toni Akeni.

According to Akeni, the party uncovered what it described as yet another open assault on Nigeria’s democracy, allegedly masterminded by Mrs Agbamuche-Mbu in partnership with Abure.

The Interim National Spokesman condemned the decision of the acting INEC Chair to invite Abure to last Tuesday’s meeting with the leadership of the 18 registered political parties, despite an existing Supreme Court judgment, describing her action as reckless.

“In her defence, she stated that INEC was merely obeying a court order, claiming that if the faction led by Senator Nenadi Usman presented a valid judgment in their favour, the Commission would comply accordingly.

“However, our independent and painstaking investigation has revealed that no such court order exists.

“While it is true that Mr. Abure filed a suit against INEC in Suit No: CV/1914/2025, before Hon. Justice Kayode Agunloye of Court 40, FCT High Court, Gwagwalada, our formal request for a Certified True Copy (CTC) of any order purportedly recognising him as Chairman was met with a categorical confirmation from the court that no such order was ever granted,” the statement said.

The statement further challenged Mrs Agbamuche-Mbu to produce the alleged court order she claimed to have relied upon in recognising Abure.
