Akpata noted that in the absence of such formal document, it is only advisable that status quo antebellum is maintained.
The Labour Party in Edo has suspended the membership of a former speaker of the state House of Assembly, Elizabeth Ativie who along with some other persons had appeared in a video which captured the purported swearing-in of a 17-member caretaker committee for the party in the state.
The letter communicating Ativie’s suspension from her ward as signed by the ward chairman Charles Usiesefe and ward secretary, Mike Ighile, partly reads:“The executives of Labour Party, Ward Uhunmwode LGA after due consideration of your gross anti-party activities and insubordination have approved your suspension as a member of Ward 4 in Uhunmwode local government area,” the statement read.
The candidate of the party for the September 21 Edo governorship election, Olumide Akpata who was also in the meeting advised members of the party in the state to stay focused and ignore distractions so as to pursue the goal of winning the election. “Remind yourself, what do our rules say? You have to be objective, what do our rules say? Is there an instrument that informs us of the change of our state working committee, I haven’t seen one.
