The National Working Committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has dismissed the purported removal of Chief Ali Odefa and his alleged replacement with Hon. Goodluck Chidiebere Egwu as the National Vice Chairman, South East.
In a statement issued on Wednesday by Debo Ologunagba, the National Publicity Secretary, the NWC categorically declared the move null and void, stating it has no effect as it is “not consistent with the provisions of the Constitution of the PDP (as amended in 2017) and the laid-down rules of our great party.”
The statement emphasized that “for the avoidance of doubt, no State Working Committee has the authority to expel, suspend, or take any disciplinary action against a National Vice Chairman, who is a member of the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the Party, without due recourse to the NWC as provided by the Constitution of the PDP.”
