Imo State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has announced the expulsion of the member representing Ideato North/Ideato South Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Mr Ikenga Ugochinyere.

PDP in a statement issued by it’s publicity secretary in Imo State, Mr Lancelot Obiak, said the expulsion of spokesperson for the Coalition of United Political Parties (CUPP) is as a result of indiscipline, insubordination, and anti-party activities.

Mr Ugochinyere was expelled by the executive of the PDP in Ideato LGA in a letter dated December 5, 2024 and signed by the LGA Chairman, ThankGod Okeke, and Secretary, Onyebuchi Umeh.

The letter reads, “Upon receipt of the report, the LGA Executive Committee of Ideato North met on the 5th December, 2024, and unanimously adopted the report of the disciplinary committee.

“In light of this, Hon. Imo Ugochinyere Ikeagwonu is hereby expelled from the party (PDP) with immediate effect and he ceases to be a member of the Peoples Democratic Party in Umuopia/Umukegwu ward of Ideato North LGA.

“The party found Ugochinyere guilty of deliberate failure to attend meetings and participate in activities of the party for a long time in breach of Section 58 (1)e) of the PDP constitution 2017 as amended.

“He was said to have engaged in unauthorised publicity of disputes within the party which contravenes section 58(1)i of the party’s constitution. Also, he formed parallel executive and organs of the party in his ward, and at the LGA and National levels which also breaches the party’s constitution.

“Furthermore, he was found guilty of consistently making derogatory and provocative public statements against the party and some of its national leaders, an action that brought the party to public ridicule”
