Ex-PDP Chair Celebrates Verdict On Odefa’s Expulsion From PDP

Former chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ebonyi State and 2024 Senatorial Candidate, Silas Joseph Onu, has welcome 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 Oni, Odefa is believed to be working for the Oyo State governor, covering the interest of the Oyo governor in the South East ahead of the 2027 presidential bid of the governor.

Onu, a lawyer said, “His expulsion has been long overdue and having it affirmed today 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.”
