The National Chairman of the Labour Party (LP), Julius Abure says the party will refund N25 million nomination fee paid by a deceased governorship aspirant of the party in Imo State, Humphrey Anumudu to his family.
Abure spoke in Abuja on Tuesday after meeting with National Assembly-Elect members of the party. He also said no newly elected members of the National Assembly under the party will defect to other political parties.
Anumudu had purchased the party’s form to contest the LP primary ahead of the November 11 governorship election in Imo State but died last week.
Abure, in Abuja on Tuesday, said the party decided to return the nomination fee to the family of the deceased to show empathy and compassion.
