Governorship aspirant of the
Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Anambra and CEO of Capital Oil and Gas
Ifeanyi Ubah has been suspended by the National Working committee of theparty.
Similarly, the senator
representing Ogun East Senatorial district, Buruju Kashamu has been referred to
the party’s disciplinary committee.
On Tuesday, Ubah announced his
decision to file a suit against the outcome of the governorship primaries that
produced Oseloka Obaze as the party’s candidate for the Anambra election slated
for November 18.
“I will be approaching the court
to determine the legality or otherwise of the PDP primary in the state”, Ubah
told newsmen.
“The election is fraudulent and
it is illegal. However, we will allow the court to determine whether the party
has the right to trample on its own constitution and the Electoral Act.
“The list of delegates used for
the election was different from the list of delegates given to the Independent
National Electoral Commission.
“The commission supervised
delegates’ election and the party submitted the names of the delegates. But my
party manufactured new names and lists a day to the primary.
”The election was a show of
shame as it was marred by obvious irregularities, leaving little to be desired
and more questions than answers from the relevant authorities and party
officials.”
Recall that PDP Chairman, Ahmed
Makarfi, recently warned members against going to court for the resolution
of grievances.
He vowed that the party will
sanction such persons, stressing that members must learn to take advantage of
the internal mechanisms within the party in settling disputes.
“The party will take a very hard
stand on any party member who is in a hurry to go to court without exhausting
all the avenues available in the party for grievances to be heard and to be
addressed accordingly,” he said.
“PDP is one family. At this stage
it is not one side versus the other side; the only side that we’ll say is
against us is anybody that may be taking us to court. Then, we will know you
are against PDP.
“But if you are not, and you have
accepted the Supreme Court judgment no matter your views and opinions, then we
are one family.”
