Obi, Otti will be expelled – LP chieftain, Arabambi

A chieftain of the Labour Party, LP, Abayomi Arabambi, has hinted on the expulsion of the party’s former presidential candidate, Peter Obi, Governor Alex Otti of Abia State, and others from the party.Arabambi said Obi, Otti, and others will be expelled during the party’s upcoming National convention.In an interview with TVC, Arabambi accused Obi and Otti of causing problems within the party.Arabambi also insisted that the Supreme Court never removed Julius Abure as the National Chairman of the party.He also pointed out that a national convention is the only solution to restoring peace in the party.“These characters that are troubling our party are a few selfish Nigerians that are after their own personal aggrandisement. We will not allow them to ruin our party.“There can be only one solution which a National Convention will soon unleash. It is to expel Peter Obi, Governor Alex Oti and others. They’re currently under suspension. I assure you that they will be expelled soon.“You see, those people are jokers. Imagine Nenadi that is not even a member of the party leveling allegations and issuing queries. Where does that happen?“Nenadi coordinated the Obedients group. She worked for Peter Obi and is still working for him. She is not a member of our party. That is why I didn’t include her among those to be expelled soon. You can’t expel someone who’s not one of you.“Imagine that Headmistress of Corruption labelling Abure as corrupt. Are you not aware that she has been standing trial for corruption? She is negotiating a plea-bargain right now. She’s the Headmistress of corruption,” Arabambi said.This comes amid Abure’s suspension as National Chairman by a faction of the party.The LP National Executive Council, NEC, suspended Abure for illegally parading himself as National Chairman despite being removed by the court.His suspension was disclosed by the Chairman of the party’s Caretaker Committee, Nenadi Usman.In a similar vein, Abure’s faction of LP had suspended Otti, Senator Ireti Kingibe, and four others indefinitely from the party.The suspension was made public by Umar Farouk Ibrahim, LP national secretary, on Wednesday.
