Edo APC Suspends Top Govt Official
Edo State APC on Monday suspended the Chairman of the state’s forestry commission, Valentine Asuen from the party.
Team@orientactualmags.com learned that Valentine Asuen’s suspension from the party was announced in a statement issued by the Publicity Secretary of the state APC, Mr Peter Uwadiae-Igbinigie while noting that the top government official’s suspension became necessary following his conduct, which ‘runs contrary to the spirit of unity, loyalty, and collective progress enshrined in the party’s constitution’.
‘The All Progressives Congress wishes to inform its members and the general public that Hon. Valentine Asuen has been suspended from the party in accordance with the provisions of the APC Constitution 2022, as amended.
This disciplinary action became necessary following his conduct, which runs contrary to the spirit of unity, loyalty, and collective progress enshrined in our constitution.
His actions have been deemed to amount to inciting division within the Party, thereby undermining the cohesion and discipline expected of every member.
In line with Article 21:2 (ii) & (v) of the Party Constitution 2022, as amended, such conduct constitutes a violation of the obligations of a member.
Furthermore, as clearly stipulated in Article 21:5 (a), (c), (d), (e), (f) & (h), these infractions are punishable offences, warranting disciplinary measures including suspension’ the statement said.
The party added that it remains committed to internal democracy, discipline, and the protection of its integrity while noting that it will not tolerate any act capable of destabilizing the party or inciting disaffection among its members.
‘Let it be clearly stated that all appointments made thus far by Governor Monday Okpebholo have been evenly distributed across the state, including Oredo Local Government Area, without any undue influence from the Party’s Secretary, Engr. Lawrence Okah.
The party urges all members to remain steadfast, united, and focused on the collective vision of the APC, as we continue to work towards delivering good governance and democratic dividends to the people’ the statement added-Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
