Odefa’s suspension was first initiated by his local party ward, which cited his actions as harmful to the party’s integrity.
Odefa has rejected the accusations, describing the suspension as a political maneuver by his opponents within the party. He claimed that the suspension was orchestrated by unknown individuals seeking to destabilize the PDP.
However, the court upheld the decision, confirming that the actions taken were in line with the party’s constitutional procedures.
This development adds to the ongoing tensions within the PDP, especially in Ebonyi, where the party faces challenges in maintaining unity.
Party insiders suggest that Odefa’s suspension is part of a broader effort to remove elements seen as working against the party's interests.
