The recent Supreme Court judgement on the leadership crisis rocking the Labour Party has invalidated the candidature of Dr George Moghalu, an aspirant for Anambra governorship election, Mr John Nwosu has said.
Nwosu, who was an aspirant of the LP for the 2025 governorship election, asserted that the sacking of the Julius Abure-led executive of the party has nullified Moghalu's candidacy.
He said this during an interview with journalists in Anambra on Tuesday.
According to Nwosu, "the Supreme Court ruling of 4th April, 2025 was definitive. We know who the leaders of LP are. Its now up to INEC to do the needful for the process to continue.
"The primary of 5th April is null and void and the primary of 10th April should be upheld, except of course that the issue of a place holder is extraneous to the established process. I am a firm believer in due process and rule of law. So I remain in the race for the candidacy.
"In the fullness of time there will be clarity and vindication. My appeal is before the party. Once the Easter holidays are over, they will, indeed, make a pronouncement.
"The Electoral processes are clear and full of established precedents. Something has to give. I'm a team player. I hope it does not come to that. But if push comes to shove, I am ready to exhaust all remedies."
The Supreme Court had on April 4 sacked the Abure-led executive.
However, Abure has continued to cling on to the position.
On April 10, the LP under the leadership of Senator Esther Usman Nenadi conducted another primary election where a member of the Anambra State House of Assembly, Jude Umennajiego was elected candidate.
