“Therefore, in exercise of section 29 (2) a, b and c, the NWC hereby invokes Section 59 (1) d of the constitution of the PDP on the Deputy National Chairman (North) and accordingly suspends him from the party immediately.”

The PDP has been buffeted by a wave of desertions by members in both the North West and North East of the party.
On Monday, President Muhammadu Buhari formally received various members of the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) Support Groups from the North East, who defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
In Kano, a former governorship candidate, Engineer Bello Sani-Gwarzo dumped the party and also joined the APC.
