<h2 style="text-align: left;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true">The Acting National Chairman of the <a href="https://www.naijanews.com/topic/NLC">NLC</a> Political Commission, Theophilus Ndubuaku, has maintained that the NLC registered the Labour Party in 2003, giving it ownership rights.</span></h2>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Ndubuaku disclosed this during an appearance on Arise Television's News program on Wednesday.</span></p>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">The statement comes amid protests by NLC members against the Labour Party’s planned March 27 National Convention.</span></p>

<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">“<em>In 2018, there was a court judgment by Justice Kolawole that stated clearly that Labour Party belongs to NLC.</em></span></p>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true"><em>“NLC registered Labour Party in 2003. The problem is that they are used to flouting, disregarding court orders, disregarding agreements,</em>” Ndubuaku said.</span></p>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">However, in the same interview, the Labour Party's Deputy National Chairman, Ayo Olorunfemi, dismissed assertions, alleging that the NLC has ownership rights over the party.</span></p>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Olorunfemi said, “<em>The Labour Party belongs to Nigerian workers, not NLC and the earlier we understood this, the better. We have TUC, we have NLC, we even have professional bodies. We have informal sectors of the economy, people who are not unionized at all, they are all owners of Labour Party.</em></span></p>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true"><em>“For NLC to want to lay sole claim to the ownership of Labour Party is absurd. NLC cannot be laying sole claim to the ownership of Labour Party.</em>”</span></p>
