The Labour Party Chairman, Julius Abure is currently embroiled in another forgery scandal in Ebonyi State less than 48 hours after he was arrested, detained and released by the Police over alleged forgery of the signature of a governorship aspirant in the 2023 election in Plateau State.

A former Chairman of the LP in Ebonyi State, Splendour Oko-Eze had in a petition to police accused Abure of forging his signature in a document where he (Eze) purportedly resigned as the governorship candidate of the Labour Party for the 2023 elections in Ebonyi State in favour of another aspirant, Edward Nkwegu.

The petition which was forwarded to the office of the Deputy Inspector General of Police, was detailed to the Force Federal Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) for investigation.

Nkwegu was alleged to have confirmed that he paid Abure N200m to secure the Ebonyi State governorship ticket.

The FCID, after conclusion of investigation, recommended to the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) that Abure be prosecuted for forgery.

It would be recalled that Abure was on Monday arrested and detained by operatives of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command, over alleged fraud linked to the party’s governorship primary in Plateau State.
