Members of the Nigeria Labour Congress national transition committee have stormed the national headquarters of the Labour Party in Abuja and called for the immediate resignation of the National Chairman, Julius Abure.

The acting Chairman of the transition committee, Aduwaheed Omar led members of the labour union to the secretariat on Tuesday.

They were chanting solidarity songs and calling for the resignation of Abure because his tenure as the chairman of the party had expired.

It was gathered that when the officials arrived at the Party’s headquarters, the gates were immediately shut by security officials.
