The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Dr Iyorchia Ayu has told the Executive Committee of his Ward that it lacks the power to suspend him.
The Executive Committee of Ayu’s PDP Igyorov Ward in Gboko local government area of Benue State, on Sunday, passed a resolution suspending him from office following a no confidence vote passed on him by the Ward executive.
The Ward leadership accused Ayu of anti- party activities that led to the loss of the PDP at the national and state levels in the just concluded general elections. The Ward leaders also accused the party chairmen of failure to pay his annual dues as required by the PDP constitution.
But in a reaction on Monday, the Nation reports that Ayu said those who suspended him were illiterates and ignorant of provisions of the PDP constitution.
