PDP To Sanctiion Members Convicted Of Corruption

The Body of People's Democratic Party, PDP National Vice Chairmen rose from a meeting in Abuja on Tuesday, December 29 to declare that any member of the party convicted in the ongoing war against corruption will face disciplinary action.

In a communique signed by the
Secretary Body of PDP Vice Chairmen, Dr. Cairo Ojougboh, after the meeting, the party dissociated itself from corrupt practices while it was in power.

The PDP also called on Buhari to investigate some of his serving ministers who have been accused of various acts of corruption.

The communique partly reads;
“The body of National Vice Chairmen supports the anti corruption drive of the Buhari’s administration and affirms that if corruption is not eradicated the growth of Nigeria as a nation will remain stunted.

“The body notes with great concern the various allegations and charges against some PDP members that served in government, even as these allegations and charges are yet to be proven. We call on the president to also investigate some of his serving ministers and associates that even more grievous allegations have been levelled against.

“As a result, the body wishes to affirm as follows : that the PDP as a party dissociates itself from any of its members so indicted.

“Any member so convicted shall also face intra party disciplinary action and will be severely sanctioned accordingly.”
