His response came after
PDP’s National Working Committee said he and the party’s National Legal
Adviser, Kamaldeen Ajibade were suspended over allegations of disloyalty and
insubordination.
The National Publicity
Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Debo Ologunagba has responded
to reports announcing his suspension from the party.
According to him, he and his group were
“fighting a just course for the survival of the party”.
His response came after PDP’s National Working
Committee (NWC) said he and the party’s National Legal Adviser, Kamaldeen
Ajibade were suspended over allegations of disloyalty and insubordination
levelled against them.
A statement signed by the PDP National
Director of Publicity, Chinwe Nnorom also noted that the PDP national working
committee has directed that the suspended officers, face a disciplinary
committee for investigations headed by the PDP’s Deputy National Chairman
(South), Taofeek Arapaja.
However, in responding, Ologunagba told
Channels Television that the party’s NWC is factionalised, with some members on
his side and others on the side of the acting national chairman, Illiya
Damagum.
He contended that his suspension cannot stand
as he has never been confronted by any organ of the party, nor attended any
meeting where the allegations against him were brought up.
He denied attending the meeting where the
decision of his suspension was taken.
Although he did not mention the names of the
NWC members who are on his side, Ologunagba stated that his group is fighting a
just course for the survival of the party.
He alleged that the interests of the acting
national chairman and his supporters were doing more harm to the party.
