A former Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Ebonyi State and 2024 Senatorial Candidate, Barrister Silas Onu, has hailed the expulsion of the party’s National Vice Chairman, South East Zone, Mr. Ali Odefa.
The Federal High Court sitting in Abakaliki, Tuesday affirmed the expulsion of the embattled Odefa
The judgment affirmed the decision of his Ward Executive Committee decision to expel him for anti-party activities after he was earlier suspended.
According to Onu, Odefa, is believed to be working for the Oyo state governor, covering the interest of the governor in the South East ahead of the 2027 Presidential bid of the governor.
Silas Onu, a lawyer said, “His (Odefa’s,) expulsion has been long overdue and having it affirmed today (Wednesday) is a great news for the PDP.
“We await to see how the Oyo Governor will now overrule the Federal High Court decision, seeing that he had encouraged the disobedience of other” judgments in the past”, he said’.
