Abure in an interview with Arise TV admitted there is a lawsuit on group, insisting it is nothing to raise concerns as layers of the party are handling the case.

He also pointed out that Okafor’s tenure as Deputy Chairman of the party expired since 2014.

According to Abure, the factional chairman only tried gaining public attention with the emergence of Peter Obi as his faction’s presidential candidate.
