The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has announced the suspension of Hon. Ndudi Elumelu, Hon. Wole Oke, Hon. Lynda Ikpeazu, Hon. Anayo Edwin, Hon. Gideon Gwadi, Hon. Toby Okechukwu and Hon. Adekoya Abdul-Majid from the party for one month.

The matter has also been referred to the National Disciplinary Committee of the party, in keeping with Section 57(3) of the PDP Constitution.

This was part of the resolutions reached by the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party which met today in Abuja to review issues surrounding the Minority Leadership of the House of Representatives.

Confirming the development in a statement in Abuja on Friday, the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Kola Ologbondiyan said that the Party noted the roles played by the suspended members which resulted in the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, reading another list for Minority Leadership of the House other than the list submitted to him by the PDP.

Ologbondiyan noted that after preliminary examination by the NWC, it was evident that the roles played by the above mentioned members, bordered on indiscipline, insubordination and disobedience of party directives contrary to Section 58 (1)(b)(c)(f)(h) of the PDP Constitution (as amended in 2017), which provides that: “Subject to the provision of this Constitution, the Party shall have power to discipline any member who says or does anything likely to bring the party into disrepute, hatred or contempt; disobeys or neglects to carry out lawful directives of the party or any organ or officer of the party; engages in anti-party activities; or engages in any conduct likely to cause disaffection among members of the party or is likely to disrupt the peaceful, lawful and efficient conduct of the business of the party”.

He said, “Consequent upon this, the above mentioned members of our party are hereby suspended for one month and this matter is hereby referred to the National Disciplinary Committee of our party, in keeping with Section 57(3) of the PDP Constitution.”
