The Social Democratic Party National Working Committee has suspended Shehu Gabam, its national leader, and two other members due to serious financial malfeasance charges amid a developing crisis.

Araba Rufus Aiyenigba, the party’s spokesperson, revealed this to ZINGTIE in a statement on Tuesday.

The National Auditor Nze Nnadi Clarkson and the party’s National Youth Leader Uchechukwu Chukwuma are the other members suspended.

The party claims that the trio’s ban is effective immediately.

“In exercise of its exclusive powers as guaranteed in Article 19.1, 19.3(i), and 19.5 of the Party Constitution (2022 as amended), the National Working Committee (NWC) of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) has approved the immediate suspension of the National Chairman of the Party, Alhaji Shehu Musa Gbam, along with two members of the National Working Committee (NWC), namely Nze Nnadi Clarkson, National Auditor, and Uchechukwu Chukwuma, National Youth Leader, over grave allegations of gross financial misconduct, embezzlement, misappropriation, and diversion of party funds.

“The decision followed a resolution of a meeting of the National Working Committee (NWC), where overwhelming evidence was presented linking the suspended officials to a series of unauthorised financial transactions, personal enrichment schemes, and movement of funds from the party’s accounts without necessary approvals of the NWC,” the statement reads.

This follows a report by ZINGTIE on Tuesday that demonstrators had demolished the gate of the SDP National Secretariat in Abuja.
