The Labour Party caucus in the House of Representatives has asked the leadership of the party to put an end to the infighting that is threatening the party and engage in further consultation in the overall interest of the party.
The caucus leader, Victor Ogene wondered why the acting national publicity secretary of the party, Obiora Ifoh decided to play to the gallery, accusing the lawmakers of lying about the planned national convention of the party.
The LP caucus leader had called for postponement of the proposed national convention of the party scheduled for end of the month to allow wider consultations and proper planning in view of the internal bickering among the leadership.
The caucus had also said that many stakeholders, including the lawmakers, were not carried along in the processes leading to the choice of date and venue for the convention.
In a statement signed by the Media Adviser to the Labour Party caucus Leader, Edward Dibiana, the caucus described the attack by the LP spokesman as tactless, unprofessional, devoid of emotional intelligence and unbecoming of a party official who is still on an acting capacity.
