Kashamu: slams PDP over his expulsion

By Cecilia Ijuo

 Sen. Buruji Kashamu has said that his  expulsion from the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP), by the National Executive Committee(NEC) of the party would not stand.

“It is clear from the ill-advised decision that the Prince Uche Secondus-led National Working Committee is lawless and undemocratic,” Buruji said in a reaction to his expulsion by the party.

“No due process was followed as enshrined in the Constitution of the party.

“Since the initial 30-day suspension elapsed on Jan. 9, 2018, they do not have any right to take any disciplinary action against me.

“This decision cannot stand because Article 57 (6) of the PDP Constitution which says ‘Any decision taken against a member who has not been informed of the charges against him or has not been given any opportunity of defending himself shall be null and void,’” he said.

The lawmaker added that there are  two suits challenging his initial suspension.
