The Peoples Democratic Party in Osun State has suspended Senator Isiaka Adetunji Adeleke, a former governor of the state.
Alhaji Gani OlaOluwa, the Chairman of the PDP in Osun State, announced the suspension in a statement on Friday in Osogbo.
According to OlaOluwa: “The decision was taken at the extended Executive Committee Meeting of the party where activities of Senator Adeleke were x-rayed.”
OlaOluwa said it was embarrassing and “shameful that Adeleke could engage in anti-party activities when all hands should be on deck in ensuring that the PDP reclaims the state”.
Adeleke had on Thursday in Osogbo announced plans to defect from the PDP to the All Progressives Congress.
The former governor said he would formally declare for the APC on Saturday at a political rally scheduled for Osogbo.
