The national leadership of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) has explained the rationale behind the expulsion of the former chairman of the party in Ogun State, Olaposi Sunday Oginni.
The party explained that the former chairman’s expulsion was based on the report of the Disciplinary Committee.
The party made these declarations in a letter addressed to Oginni.
The letter was made available to Media Talk Africa on Tuesday.
The expulsion letter was signed by the national secretary of the party, Dipo Olayoku.
Media Talk Africa learnt that the party had earlier suspended the chairman along with his Delta State counterpart.
The party said that the decision was reached by the National Working Committee (NWC) in its emergency meeting on Thursday, April 27, 2023.
The party noted that the expulsion followed the report of the disciplinary committee set up to investigate allegations of anti-party activities and other malpractices against the expelled chairman.
The party added that the embattled chairman failed to appear before the committee on two occasions when he was invited to explain his side of the allegations of anti-party activities and other misdemeanours levelled against him.
The party maintained that the expelled chairman resorted to abuses against the leadership of the party.
NNPP said: “Your expulsion followed the report of the Disciplinary Committee set up to investigate allegations of anti-party activities and other malpractices against you.
“According to the Disciplinary Committee, you failed to appear before the committee on the two occasions you were invited to come and explain your own side in the allegations of anti-party activities and other misdemeanours against you. Instead, you resorted to abuses of the leadership of the party.”
