The national leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has voided the suspension of a former Governor of Kaduna State, Ahmed Makarfi.
Makarfi, a one-time Acting National Chairman, was suspended by the Executive Committee of his Tudun Wada Ward in Makarfi local government area of the state.
But in a statement, PDP National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba noted that the purported suspension was inconsistent with provisions of the PDP constitution.
Ologunagba’s statement, which was issued on behalf of the National Working Committee (NWC), stressed that being a member of the National Executive Committee (NEC), Makarfi cannot be suspended by the executive committee of his ward.
