Suspend Odefa Now, South-East Party leaders tell PDP NWC

Some leaders of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the South-East have called on the National Working Committee of the party to suspend Chief Ali Odefa, National Vice Chairman of the PDP in the region.

In a statement on Saturday, the stakeholders accused Odefa of subverting the party’s constitution.
“We, the peace-loving leaders and members of the South-East chapter of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), are issuing this statement to urgently call for the suspension and prosecution of Chief Ali Odefa, who currently serves as the National Vice Chairman for the South-East, due to his 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 assert that Chief Odefa lacks the moral character and integrity necessary to effectively represent the interests of the South-East in his current position. Therefore, we demand immediate disciplinary action be taken against him, as well as any other party leaders involved in this egregious 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,” read the statement signed by Chief Michael Ohakwe, Spokesman, South-East PDP Leaders.
