During the NWC meeting on Tuesday, Bature challenged state party chairmen and other stakeholders to expose those involved for the National Executive Committee (NEC), to apply the necessary sanctions.
According to him, a lot of agitations are coming from party members to suspend certain PDP bigwigs, adding that the state party chairmen are the ones that are in charge of those states, Vanguard reports.
The NOS said:
“You are to tell us who did anti-party and who did not do anti-party, based on that NEC Wil take decision. Write to us and tell us what transpired, no matter what happened.
“I also want the acting Chairman to call on the Chairman of Cross River to tell us what is happening in the state, because there are so many things happening and we are hearing in the media. We really need to know what is happening.”
