The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has suspended its National Vice Chairman for the South East zone, Ali Odefa, due to alleged anti-party activities deemed harmful to the party’s reputation.
This decision was reached during a meeting of the Oguduokwor Ward Executive Committee in Onicha Local Government Area, Ebonyi State, and is effective immediately.
Herbert Onyedikachi, the acting Chairman of the PDP Oguduokwor Ward, confirmed the suspension in a briefing with journalists in Abuja.
He stated, “Odefa’s suspension is due to alleged anti-party activities and other offences considered detrimental to the party’s image and interests.”
