The national convention of the Labour Party (LP) planned to hold at the International Conference Centre (ICC) Umuahia, in Abia state has been moved to Anambra state.

Our correspondent reports that the change of the venue took some members of the party by surprise as they had booked and paid for hotel accommodation.

A letter dated, March 20, signed by the national chairman of the party, Julius Abure and the party’s national secretary, Alhaji Umar Farouk which was obtained by our correspondent, disclosed that the new venue of the congress would be Grand Masons Hotel, Nnewi, Anambra state.

According to the statement, the venue change was due to the earlier venue’s unavailability for the congress on the scheduled date.

The statement, acknowledging potential inconveniences, urged members to attend and monitor the congress, confirming it will proceed on Wednesday, March 27, at 10:00 am.
