Wike, Fayose, Anyanwu, others, get PDP expulsion certificate

The Taminu Turaki-led Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has issued certificates of expulsion to Nyesom Wike, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, and other members recently expelled by the party.

Turaki disclosed this while addressing journalists at the PDP headquarters in Abuja on Tuesday.

Recently, during the national convention held at Ibadan, the Oyo state capital, the party had unanimously expelled Wike and a former governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, from the party, for anti-party activities.

It also expelled Samuel Anyanwu, National Secretary, and eight others, and dissolved party structures in Imo, Abia, Enugu, Akwa Ibom, and Rivers states.

The chieftains were expelled for anti-party activities and fostering disunity with a series of litigations against the interests of the party.

Turaki further stated that their certificates of expulsion had been sent to them via courier services.
