Julius Abure-led National Executive Committee, has declared that Labour Party, will not be part of any opposition groups, coming together to form coalition against President Bola Tinubu in 2027 general election.

Speaking in a communique after the party’s NEC meeting in Abuja on Friday, Abure said that LP would rather focus on rebuilding and reconciling aggrieved members.

There are claims that Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party, was willing to work with former LP’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
