Abayomi Arabambi, the Labour Party’s national publicity secretary, revealed that the party will call a meeting of the National Executive Council (NEC) to suggest that Peter Obi, its previous presidential candidate, be expelled.

Arabambi clarified during Tuesday’s Channels Morning Brief that Obi, who had already been suspended, then engaged in actions the party characterized as anti-party.

“You don’t join a political party and still keep your leg in another party. He knows it is unconstitutional to belong to two political parties at the same time,” Arabambi said.

“They have succeeded in luring him to their side, and there he shall remain.”

In accordance with the Labour Party constitution and the custom of the majority of political parties, he also disclosed that the NEC will convene shortly to formally recommend Obi’s expulsion, which would then be approved at the party’s national convention.

“When we want to expel any member who acts contrary to our constitution, the NEC makes the recommendation, and final approval is given at the convention,” Arabambi stated.

“So, Obi will be expelled from our party; he is no longer a member of the Labour Party.”
