The State Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party in Ondo State has announced the suspension of Mr. Fatai Adams, the state chairman.
Allegations of involvement in anti-party activities, breaching the party’s rules and regulations, led to this decision, as outlined in a statement issued by nine committee members and released to newsmen on Tuesday.
According to the statement, the suspension aligns with section 58(1b. c, f. h. and i) of the PDP Constitution amended in 2017. It cited Mr. Adams’ engagement in actions detrimental to the party and likely to tarnish its reputation.
The statement read, “Pursuant to section 58(1b. c, f. h. and i) 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.
“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.”
