The leadership of the Labour Party, Jere Ward in Jere South, Kaduna State, has debunked recent claims questioning the membership status of Sen. Nenadi Usman in the party.
The declaration was made during a news conference held at FADA Polly Unit 006, convened by the Ward Chairman, Mr Hussaini Lawal, alongside executive members of the Ward.
This is made known on Monday in a statement signed by Hussain Lawal in Abuja.
Lawal described the reports alleging that senator Usman was not a member of the Labour Party as “false, malicious, and politically motivated.”
He emphasised that Usman was a fully registered and bonafide member of the Labour Party in Jere Ward, with her polling unit clearly documented as 006.
“Let it be known to all Nigerians that Sen. Nenadi Usman is not just a member; she is a pillar of the Labour Party, not only in Jere Ward and Kaduna State but also across Nigeria.
”Her wealth of experience, leadership, and contributions to the party’s growth are invaluable.”
Lawal highlighted her commitment to national development, referencing her past roles as Commissioner in Kaduna State, Minister of Finance, Senator representing Southern Kaduna and her current role as acting National Chairman of the Labour Party.
According to him, the news conference served to reaffirm her active membership and pivotal leadership within the party, while also issuing a strong warning to those propagating misinformation.
“Our records are clear and verifiable. We challenge anyone with contrary evidence to come forward. We will not allow political mischief makers to distract us from our mission to build a better Nigeria under the Labour Party.
“Senator Nenadi Usman remains a respected leader. She is our pride, and we stand firmly with her,” Lawal said.
The party leadership urged the public to disregard falsehoods and stand by the truth. (NAN)
