“The expulsion takes effect from today, Friday, February 10, 2023,” the statement read in part.
Ologunagba said that the decision of the NWC is sequel to the recommendation of the National Disciplinary Committee and pursuant to Sections 58 and 59 (1)(g) of the PDP Constitution (as amended in 2017).
The PDP charged all members of the party across the country to remain united and focused on its mission to Rescue, Rebuild and Redirect the nation from misrule.
The Herald recalls that the party first announced the chieftains’ suspension last month.
