The Abia State chapter of the Labour Party says June 12 remains a historic symbol of the collective struggle for freedom, justice, popular participation, and the right of the people to determine their own future through democratic processes.
In a statement issued on Saturday and signed by the state party chairman, Peter Azubuike, the party said that, as the people of Abia State continue to enjoy the dividends of democracy through the leadership of Governor Alex Otti, it is important to remind citizens that democracy can only flourish when citizens actively participate in the electoral process.
The party said it is joining millions of Nigerians in commemorating the sacrifices, courage, and resilience of the heroes and heroines who fought for the restoration and sustenance of democratic governance in the country.
It therefore called on all eligible residents of the state to take advantage of the ongoing Independent National Electoral Commission
