The party said Mr Lawal and the others were suspended for violating the constitution of the party by conducting and participating in an 'illegal' governorship primary election
, in Ogun State has suspended a governorship aspirant of the party, Jimi Lawal, for allegedly participating in an “illegal” governorship primary election in the state.
Mr Solarin said Mr Lawal and the others were suspended for violating the constitution of the party by conducting and participating in an “illegal” governorship primary election which was not authorised by the National Working Committee of the party. Mr Solarin added that Mr Lawal and the others were suspended for one month pending the outcome of a disciplinary committee which would be set up to review their action.
“We have also resolved today that Otunba Jimi Lawal is also going to be on suspension with immediate effect because he participated actively in a congress not conducted by the State Executives of the party, an action which has been found to bring the party into disrepute.“We must also emphasize the fact that in a house where discipline is missing, definitely such a house will not raise good children and they are not going to raise a good ambassador for that family.
