PEOPLE DEMOCRATIC PARTY (PDP) KANKE LGA, KWALL.. PLATEAU STATE.

Press Release
SUSPENSION OF DAUDA WAPTU AND GODWIN BEDIR

It has come to the knowledge of the leadership of the party in Kanke LGA that some few indecent members of the party are bent on causing disaffection and disunity among members of across the wards in the LGA. The attention of the leadership has been drawn, particularly to recent postings on the social media that the tenure of one Mr Dauda Waptu have not elapsed and that he is the LGA party chairman. Mr Dauda Waptu is said to be holding secret meetings especially in his ward and has been misleading party members to form parallel exco across the wards.

For the avoidance of doubt and to put records straight, it’s a known fact to all loyal party faithfuls that Congresses were successfully conducted at both the wards and LGA levels and winners emerged. The tenure of ward and LGA executives terminated on the 30th April and 5th may 2020 respectively, and both the ward exco and LGA exco were sworn in on the above respective dates accordingly.

We wish to state with clarity that Mr Dauda Waptu is not the immediate past LGA chairman of the party as no record any where has shown that he and his team were elected at any point in time. Any one in doubt can visit the website of the party or crosscheck with the national secretariat.

The so-called issue of tenure is a mere phantom of the mind of Waptu and his cohorts. The party also wishes to note with great dismay the rambling behavior of one ‘Engr’ Bedir Godwin who has been posting and castigating party leaders at all levels in the social media, and also recently parading himself as caretaker secretary of the party at the state level.

We are aware of the fact that the said Bedir Godwin for long, has been sponsored by some elements outside the party to destabilize the PDP which indeed, he is desperately doing to satisfy his paymasters.

The leadership of the party acknowledges the receipt of the notice of suspension of Mr Dauda Waptu from Tabulung unit of Dawaki Ward and Bedir Godwin from Goktok unit of Langshi Ward respectively for their roles in anti party activities as stated above. Their actions breached the party constitution in regard to section 58:(1)sub section (1).

In line therefore with the above section of the constitution,the party leadership unanimously endorsed the suspension of the two members with immediate effect for a period of one month. All members of the party are advised not to transact any business of the party with them as the party will not tolerant any act of indiscipline from any member any longer.

Meanwhile the leadership has concluded arrangements to constitute a reconciliation committee to reconcile all members with genuine grievances for the party to move forward. The leadership of the party is poised to reunite all genuine members and prepare the party for winning future elections as Kanke is home of PDP.
