The National Working Committee (NWC) of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has ratified the Kogi State Executive Committee’s decision to expel Hon. Leke Abejide, citing what it described as multiple acts of indiscipline.

Abejide, the lone ADC lawmaker in the National Assembly who represents the Yagba East/Yagba West/Mopa Moro Federal Constituency, was removed after what party leaders said were repeated violations of party rules and conduct.

He has been a loyal member of the party since the 9th Assembly.

Announcing the decision after its meeting at the party’s National Headquarters in Abuja on Thursday, the ADC’s National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, stated on his X platform that the party would not condone behaviour that undermines its values.

“The party reaffirmed that it would not tolerate any acts of indiscipline from its members as it seeks to build a party founded on discipline, character, and integrity,” Abdullahi wrote.

The NWC also directed state and local party organs to expedite the formation of executive committees across all levels.

“Furthermore, the party also directed the state leadership of the party to ensure that all vacant positions in the ward, local governments, and state executives of the party are filled in accordance with the approved transition guidelines that were earlier issued, ahead of the congresses whose timeline would be announced soon,” he stated.

However, when contacted through a WhatsApp message for his reaction to the expulsion, Abejide laughed off the development with an emoji while stating, “My reaction will come after the court judgment.”
