South-East PDP Leaders Call for Suspension of Ali Odefa

In a firm statement issued by the South-East chapter of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), leaders and members are urgently calling for the suspension and subsequent prosecution of Chief Ali Odefa, the current National Vice Chairman for the South-East. The call stems from his alleged  subversion of the PDP Constitution

The recent events surrounding the misleading and disreputable meeting of the South-East Zonal Executive Committee, orchestrated by Chief Ali Odefa, regarding the status of Senator Samuel Anyanwu as the National Secretary of the PDP, have brought significant embarrassment not only to our party but also to the entire South-East region.

It is deeply regrettable that a high-ranking national officer of our party would resort to misquoting and misrepresenting the PDP Constitution and Electoral Guidelines through national media channels solely to further his own  agenda.

We demand immediate disciplinary action be taken against him, as well as any other party leaders involved in this act, in order to serve as a deterrent against similar misconduct in the future.

We wish to reaffirm our unwavering confidence in the leadership of Senator Samuel Anyanwu as the authentic National Secretary of the PDP. His commitment to the party’s values and principles remains steadfast, and we stand firmly behind him.

In light of the gravity of Chief Odefa’s actions and their detrimental impact on our party and our region, we implore the National Working Committee (NWC) of the PDP to swiftly suspend him pending further investigation and legal proceedings.

Signed,

Chief Michael Ohakwe
