The Osun State chapter of the People’s Democratic Party has expelled Prince Dotun Babayemi from the party over an alleged anti-party activity.
The Ward Executive members of Otun Balogun 2, Ayedaade Local Government Area made the pronouncement during a press briefing at the State Party secretariat in Osogbo on Friday.
Reading the address on behalf of the Ward EXCO, the Secretary of the Ward, Ogunleye Bukayo said the factional governorship candidate was expelled as a result of a petition filed against him by some party members.
“The Ward Executive Committee of the party at its meeting of 20th July 2022 received the report of the disciplinary committee, and after careful and extensive deliberations ratified the report of the disciplinary committee.
“The Ward Executive Committee of the Party in the exercise of the powers conferred on it by sections 57(2) and 59 (1) (g) of the constitution of PDP hereby remove and expel Prince Dotun Babayemi from the Peoples Democratic Party. He, therefore, ceases to be a member of the PDP henceforth.”
Babayemi had been looking for ways to get court judgment to nullify the primary election that produced Senator Ademola Adeleke, as the gubernatorial candidate of the party.
Babayemi lost his cases at the State High Court including an appeal court.
He, however, has headed to the Supreme Court to seek redress for his case against Senator Ademola Adeleke.
