The Labour Party has issued a statement regarding Abayomi Arabambi, who recently took the West African Examinations Council, National Youth Service Corps, and University of Nigeria, Nsukka to court over Peter Obi's academic records. According to the party, Arabambi did not take this action as a member of the Labour Party.
The party initially chose to remain silent on the matter, but has now spoken out to clarify Arabambi's relationship to the party. This decision was made after the story appeared in mainstream newspapers, with headlines describing Arabambi as a Labour Party chieftain. The party's statement was made by its National Publicity Secretary, Ken Eluma Asogwa. Further details on the party's position are available.
