SAN FRANCISCO, July 05, (THEWILL) – The National Working Committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has suspended Hon. Ndidi Elumelu and six other members of the party in the
House of Representatives over the minority leadership tussle in the lower legislative chamber.
Other members suspended are Wole Oke, Lynda Ikpeazu, Anayo Edwin, Gideon Gwadi, Toby Okechukwu and Adekoya Abdul-Majid.
The party had invited them in a decision taken by the NWC at its 473 meeting held on Thursday.
The lawmakers were to come on Friday for a crucial meeting at the party’s national secretariat, in Abuja.
“The summon is in line with the provisions of Chapter 10 (57) (3) of the Constitution of the PDP. The members are to appear before the members of the National Working Committee at 10am,” the party spokesman said.
However, THEWILL gathered that the party has now chosen to suspend them.
