A faction of the Lagos State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party loyal to Nyesom Wike has announced the suspension of former Deputy National Chairman, Bode George, and 23 other party members over alleged anti-party activities.
The suspension was contained in a statement issued on Friday and signed by the chairman of the faction’s disciplinary committee, Kayode Ogunbiyi, and its secretary, Desmond Agbo.
According to the committee, the decision followed the consideration of several petitions alleging anti-party conduct and violations of the party’s constitution by some members.
The committee stated that it could no longer tolerate actions capable of creating division, disunity, and disaffection within the party.
“The decision to suspend George and other erring members was contained in the resolution of the meeting held on Tuesday, May 26, 2026, where various petitions were presented against certain notable personalities and other members bordering on issues of anti-party activities and deliberate infractions of the PDP Constitution,” the statement said.
The disciplinary committee further disclosed that it reviewed an earlier disciplinary action reportedly taken against George and reaffirmed that position.
“The Committee also reviewed the action previously taken against former Chief Olabode George by the National Executive Committee, which suspended him from the party, and reaffirmed that he remains suspended as earlier pronounced,” the statement added.
The faction explained that several other members were sanctioned after investigations into allegations that they were working with rival political parties or engaging in unauthorised political activities considered detrimental to the interests of the PDP.
It noted that all affected members would be barred from participating in party activities within Lagos State and would not be allowed to represent the party in any official or unofficial capacity during the period of suspension.
The group also warned that legal action could be pursued against any suspended member found acting in a manner contrary to the interests of the party in the state.
The latest development underscores the continuing internal divisions within the Lagos PDP as various factions position themselves ahead of future political contests.
