The Federal High Court sitting in Abakaliki has affirmed the expulsion of the embattled PDP National Vice Chairman, South East Zone, Mr. Ali Odefa.
The judgment was delivered today, 26th February 2025, affirming the decision of his Ward Executive Committee expelling him for anti-party activities for which he was earlier suspended.
Mr. Ali Odefa, who is believed to be the hatchet man of the Oyo State Governor in party politics covering the South East ahead of the 2027 Presidential bid of the Governor, has been solely responsible for the downward spiral of the party’s fortune in the South East.
His expulsion has been long overdue and having it affirmed today is a great news for the PDP. We await to see how the Oyo Governor will now overrule the Federal High Court decision, seeing that he had encouraged the disobedience of other judgments in the past.
Silas Joseph Onu, Esq.
Former State Chairman, PDP Ebonyi State and 2024 Senatorial Candidate.
