The PDP reversed the recent suspension of a former governor of Katsina State, Ibrahim Shema; former governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose; Senator Pius Anyim; Prof. Dennis Ityavyar (Benue State), and Dr. Aslam Aliyu (Zamfara State).
The party also reversed the referral of Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, to the PDP national disciplinary committee.
KanyiDaily recalls that Shema, Anyim, Ityavyar, and Aliyu were suspended over alleged anti-party activities, but the members protested their suspension, saying they were not given a fair hearing.
In a statement issued on Thursday, PDP spokesperson, Debo Ologunagba said the decision was taken after the NWC “extensively discussed recent developments” in the party.
The statement read, “The NWC recognised the imperativeness of a total reconciliation among party leaders and critical stakeholders for a more cohesive party in the overall interest of our teeming members and Nigerians in general.
“This decision is without prejudice to the powers of the NWC to take necessary disciplinary action against any member of the party at any time pursuant to the provisions of the constitution of the PDP.”
The PDP asked all members and leaders to be guided by the party’s constitution and the “new spirit and necessity of reconciliation, unity and harmony in our party at this critical time”.
The decision comes days after Iyorchia Ayu was removed as the PDP national chairman and Iliya Damagum was appointed as the acting leader.
