Alex Otti: Abia PDP suspends Board of Trustees Chairman, Adolphus Wabara

-

 

Abia State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has suspended its Board of Trustees (BoT) Chairman, Senator Adolphus Wabara, over alleged anti-party activities.

Confirming the suspension in an interview with Enyimba FM, the state PDP chairman, Abraham Amah, stated that the decision was taken by the State Executive Committee (SEC) due to Wabara’s breach of party loyalty.

According to Amah, Wabara publicly endorsed Abia State Governor, Dr. Alex Otti of the Labour Party, for a second term in office in October 2023—barely five months after Otti’s inauguration.

He described the endorsement as an act of sabotage against the PDP, bringing the party into disrepute.

Amah cited Chapter 10, Article 58C and F of the PDP Constitution (2017 as amended), which prohibits such actions and provides grounds for disciplinary measures under Article 59-1.

When asked whether the suspension was related to Wabara’s involvement in the ongoing controversy surrounding the national secretary position of the PDP, Amah dismissed such claims, insisting that the decision was based solely on Wabara’s actions.

He also explained that while the party had intended to take action earlier, Wabara had been on medical vacation on three occasions, delaying the process. However, the SEC deemed it appropriate to act now that he is available.

On why the suspension did not originate from the ward level, Amah clarified that the PDP Constitution empowers the SEC to discipline any member found guilty of infractions, irrespective of their rank within the party.

"The constitution provides multiple ways to carry out this type of duty," Amah stated, emphasizing the SEC’s authority in such matters.

Nigerians, especially motorists or vehicle owners, heaved a sigh of relief when the Nigeria National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) announced reduction in fuel price from N1,060 to N965 across all its retail stations nationwide. Also, the Dangote Group through its Refinery reduced its price per litre to N899 reaching out to Nigerians through the MRS filling stations[/b]. But what literally should be a source of joy has become an avenue for fuel stations to cheat, shortchange, and fleece motorists and Nigerians of their hard-earned money by dispensing less quality fuel which blows out easily in a very short time. In Abuja, commercial drivers are complaining bitterly of not meeting their daily target anymore apparently because of the shenanigans of the fuel stations through their attendants. Some drivers who spoke with Nigerian Tribune expressed disappointment in quality of fuel being sold, the price, and the tampering of the meters by the attendants who have the backing of their mana...
