Ibadan, Oyo State — In a dramatic turn of events at the ongoing 2025 National Convention, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has expelled several high-profile members, including former Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike, former National Secretary Senator Samuel Anyanwu, legal luminary Kamaldeen Ajibade (SAN), former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose, Hon. Austin Nwachukwu, and a number of others.
The tough decision, ratified by an overwhelming majority of delegates at the convention holding in Ibadan, marks one of the most decisive disciplinary actions taken by the PDP in recent years. It underscores the party’s renewed determination to cleanse its ranks, restore internal cohesion, and strengthen its political machinery ahead of the 2027 general elections.

According to insiders at the convention, the expulsions followed detailed reports from the party’s disciplinary committees, which found the affected individuals guilty of various acts of anti-party behavior that allegedly undermined the PDP’s performance in previous elections.
Party leaders speaking after the vote noted that the action was necessary to “protect the soul of the PDP,” emphasizing that the era of unchecked internal sabotage was over.
The convention continues in Ibadan, with further resolutions expected as the party positions itself for what it describes as a “full-scale revival and strategic repositioning” ahead of 2027.
