The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ebonyi State has nominated the Zonal Youth Leader of the party, Goodluck Chidiebere Egwu as the replacement for the expelled erstwhile South East National Vice Chairman of the party, Ali Odefa.
In a letter addressed to the Acting National Chairman of the party, Alhaji Illiya Damagun and the Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Senator Adolphus Wabara, the PDP hinged the nomination of Egwu popularly known as Hulala on the expulsion of Ali Odefa for a plethora of anti-party activities.
Arise News reports that a Federal High Court in Abakaliki had upheld the initial suspension of Odefa by the Ward Executive of the PDP Oguduokwor Ward in Onicha LGA.
Consequent upon his earlier suspension, the Oguduokwor Ward Disciplinary Committee after hearing the allegations leveled against Odefa recommended his expulsion from the party.
Subsequently, on December 12 2024, the Executives of PDP in Oguduokwor Ward announced the summary expulsion of Odefa.
The PDP Leaders in Ebonyi State unanimously endorsed the replacement of Odefa.
Among the signatories are Chief Onwe S. Onwe, former Acting National Secretary; Senator Paulinus Igwe Nwagu, 2023 Deputy Governorship Candidate; Chief John Igboke, former Deputy National Youth Leader and Chief Paul Okorie, a former governorship aspirant.
