The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ondo State has announced the suspension of the state Chairman, Fatai Adams on grounds of “anti-party activities”.
The Ondo PDP Chapter accused Mr. Adams of taking part in activities that were undermining the interests of their political party.
The latest development was contained in a statement co-signed by the state deputy Chairman, Tola Alabere; state secretary, Oluseye Olujimi; Organising Secretary, Dare Akinwale; and six other members of the working committee.
The statement reads:
“Pursuant to Section 58(1) (b, c, f, h, and j) of the PDP Constitution as amended in 2017, the State Working Committee has approved the suspension of the State Chairman. Mr. Fatai Adams. for anti-party activities and for engaging in activities likely to bring the party to disrepute,” the statement partly read.
“He is accordingly, advised to appear before the State Disciplinary Committee of the party for further interrogations within the next one week.
“The party wishes to state emphatically that it will deal decisively with any incursion by the ruling party. the APC, into its ranks.”
Ondo state has been grappling with some heated political tensions, including the recent death of Governor Rotimi Akeredolu after a protracted illness.
