Details of the Expulsion

The formal disclaimer provided further details. It stated, “This is to inform the general public that the following individuals whose pictures and names appear below are no longer members of the People Democratic Party (PDP), nor hold any office in the Party, having been expelled from the Party at the Year 2025 Elective National Convention held on the 15th – 16th November, 2025 at Ibadan, Oyo State in accordance with the Constitution of our Party (as amended).”

The party reiterated its stance on unauthorized interactions. “Any interactions or representations made by these expelled members are not authorized by our great Party,” the statement read. It concluded with a stern warning: “Therefore, members of the public dealing with these individuals are doing so at their own peril.”

The Turaki-led faction also issued a general caution on Wednesday. It warned the public about impostors. These individuals, it stated, continue to parade themselves as party members. The National Executive Committee reportedly expelled the affected individuals on November 18. This was due to alleged anti-party activities and gross misconduct. The expulsion aligns with the amended 2017 PDP Constitution.
