PDP Chieftain Calls For The Suspension Of Party Members Who Worked Against PDP In Bayelsa Poll
One of the Chieftains of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP Aminu Yakudima, has called on the leadership of the party to suspend party members who worked against the victory of the party in the Saturday gubernatorial poll in Bayelsa state.
Yakudima was reacting to the outcome of the governorship poll in Bayelsa.
He disclosed this in press statement made available to newsmen on Tuesday.
He said “Some people worked against the interest of the PDP, therefore, the national leadership should investigate and discipline them to serve as a deterrent to others.
“Those found guilty should be suspended or sanctioned in line with the provisions of the PDP constitution. By and large, there was this issue of persistent thuggery but also, there was a problem within the PDP.”
Meanwhile, the PDP National Publicity Secretary Kola Ologbondiyan, revealed that the party would investigate the just concluded elections in Kogi and Bayelsa state.
He said “The National Working Committee (NWC) will meet soon to conduct a post-mortem on the elections in Kogi and Bayelsa states.”
There are however, allegation that the ex-president Goodluck Jonathan had worked against the victory of the PDP in the just concluded gubernatorial poll in the state.

It could be recalled that Ogbia local government, where Jonathan hails from, with over 40,000 votes heightened suspicion on the role of the former president in the PDP’s defeat.
The former president’s hosting of two APC governors in Otuoke; the visit by Lyon and other APC leaders in the state; his non-support for the PDP candidate during the primary election; his non-attendance of the PDP grand rally; his visit to Buhari at the presidential villa, and the prayers made by his mother in support of Lyon have fuelled the speculations.
