A faction of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), loyal to FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, has announced the expulsion of several key members. These include Governors Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State, and Dauda Lawal of Zamfara State.
These significant decisions were reached during the party’s 103rd National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting. The meeting took place at the PDP national secretariat in Abuja.
Other notable figures also expelled include former Board of Trustees Chairman, Senator Adolphus Wabara. Senator Kabiru Tanimu Turaki and Deputy National Chairman (South), Taofeek Arapaja, were among those affected. Their expulsion was reportedly due to “anti-party activities.”
Alhaji Mohammed Abdulrahman, the Acting National Chairman of the PDP, presented the memo for these expulsions. He stated that the affected party members had disregarded court judgments. Such actions, he explained, brought the party into disrepute.
