The Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), in Etsako East Local Government Area of Edo State, Sir Sunday Adogah, has said Prince Kassim Afegbua has no authority to speak on the internal affairs of the party since he has been suspended.

Adogah noted that the suspension of Afegbua has been ratified by the National Executive Committee (NEC) of PDP, in a statement on Tuesday evening.

He noted that as a result, Prince Afegbua, a one-time chieftain of the party, remains expelled from the party and no longer attends meetings of the party in Edo State and as such, appears to be more of an APC chieftain.

He added that Afegbua “has already sold his soul to Adams Oshiomhole.”
