Announcing the expulsion of Mr Odefa on Wednesday via a statement, the Acting Chairperson of the PDP in Oguduokwor, Onyeka Ovuta, stated that the expulsion of the erstwhile official followed the recommendation of the party’s disciplinary committee that affirmed the allegations of anti-party activities levelled against him.

The party announced that Mr Odefa by the virtue of his expulsion, “ceases to be a member of the party.”
Reacting, Mr Odefa laughed off the expulsion, stating that those who announced it were “frustrated charlatans”.
He said the expulsion cannot stand because “it did not take place in the ward but in Abuja”. He said those who made the announcement against him were not ward executives of the party.
