The Labour Party has said the Nigeria Labour Congress Political Commission lacked the powers to sack the National Chairman, Abure led National Working Committee.
The party was responding to the communique issued by the Political Commission after a stakeholders meeting in Abuja on Monday where it sacked the NWC led by Abure and called for the setting up of a transition committee to run the party.
The stakeholders also agreed to take over the running of the offices of the party across the country pending when a new national convention would be conducted.
They gave the transition committee three months to organise a legitimate convention beginning from the ward to local, state congresses and national convention.
But responding in a statement on Tuesday, National Publicity Secretary of the party, Obiora Ifoh berated the political commission, saying it lacked such powers to make such decisions.
The statement said all plots to by the NLC to hijack the party leadership have failed.
It also alleged that the Political Commission of the NLC was a front for President of the NLC, Comrade Joe Ajaero.
