The announcement came as the YPP elected new national officers to fill vacant positions during the party’s 24th Extra-Ordinary National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting in Abuja.
In a communiqué released after the meeting in Abuja, dated December 4, 2025, the NEC reviewed issues affecting the party’s unity and overall development and adopted several resolutions.
One of the major decisions was to endorse the expulsion of Uzokwe Peter, who represents Nnewi North, Nnewi South, and Ekwusigo Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives.
The NEC upheld the National Working Committee’s earlier action, which followed numerous petitions and verified video clips showing what the party described as anti-party conduct.
The party said these actions breached Section 36(7), Article (b, f & o) of its constitution.
The communiqué reiterated the YPP’s strict position against any behaviour that threatens the party’s discipline or internal harmony.
The NEC also approved the appointment of new national officers to occupy vacant positions, in accordance with Section 82 of the Electoral Act, 2022.
The newly elected officials include Nana Mahmoud as Deputy National Chairperson; Chigozie Udogu as Deputy National Secretary; Uche Levis as National Legal Adviser; Owoyombo Solomon as Acting National Youth Leader; Paul Chukwuma as National Leader; Sani Darma as North-West Zonal Chairman; and Hon. Olatunbosun Abolarinwa as National Security Adviser.
The NEC congratulated the new officers and urged them to serve with dedication and uphold the values of the party.
A vote of confidence was also passed on the National Chairman, Bishop Amakiri, after the motion was moved by the Kaduna State Chairman, Mikailu Abubakar, and seconded by Ekiti State Chairman, Owoola Daramola.
