Saturday, October 12, 2024 -A former Ekiti governor, Ayo Fayose's brother, Isaac Fayose, has declared himself the new National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Isaac went further to announce the suspension of some top
members from the two factions of the party, such as Alhaji Atiku Abubakar,
Nyesom Wike, Ayo Fayose, Seyi Makinde, and other G5 members.
He added that anyone who feels agitated by his decision
should challenge it in the court.
“It’s official, now I’m the new national Chairman of the PDP. The
current [Acting] National Chairman, Mr Damagum, has been suspended and I’ve
asked the security at Wadata House to keep the key with the Secretariat.
“If you’re not happy, please, we don’t want you to come to the secretariat to
make trouble. You can go to court. And the NWC, some of you have been
suspended, drop all the PDP stuff with you at the security at Wandata. The
former G5 has been suspended. Wike has been suspended.
“Fayose has been suspended. Governor Seyi Makinde has been suspended. All the
people doing anti-party have been suspended. Atiku too has been suspended
because his ambition is giving us headache,” he declared.
It had been reported earlier that a faction
of the PDP National Working Committee, NWC, had suspended Damagum and the
party’s National Secretary, Samuel Anyanwu.
The factional NWC also suspended the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Debo
Ologunagba and the National Legal Adviser, Kamaldeen Ajibade.
However, the Abuja Federal High Court restrained the National Executive
Committee (NEC) and PDP’s Board of Trustees (BoT) from removing Damagum as the
party’s Acting National Chairman.
The court ordered that no other person must be recognized as PDP national
chairman other than Damagum until the national convention of the party
scheduled for December next year.
