Labour Party Schedules May 23 Presidential Primary, Suspends 25 Members Over Alleged Anti-Party Conduct
The Labour Party has announced plans to hold its presidential primary election on May 23, as part of preparations ahead of upcoming national polls.
At the same time, the party leadership has taken disciplinary action against 25 members accused of engaging in activities considered contrary to the party’s interests. The suspensions, according to party officials, are aimed at enforcing discipline and maintaining unity within the organisation.
The party explained that the move follows concerns over alleged anti-party behaviour, which it says undermines internal cohesion and threatens its electoral prospects.
Leaders of the party reaffirmed their commitment to due process and internal democracy, stressing that all members are expected to adhere strictly to party guidelines and uphold its core values.
They also noted that the scheduled primary will provide a platform for selecting a credible candidate who will represent the party in the forthcoming presidential election.
