The All Progressive Congress (APC) has suspended the Senator, who represents Ondo South Senatorial District of Ondo State at the National Assembly (NASS), Jimoh Ibrahim.
He was suspended by some members of the ward executives of the party at Igbotako Ward II, in Okitipupa local government of Ondo state for alleged anti-party activities.
According to the executives, in a letter at the end of their meeting, they suspended the Senator for his actions and activities, which they said, violated the party’s constitution.
They also cited that the suit instituted by Jimoh against the APC, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, as well as his involvement in anti-party activities influenced their decision to suspend the Senator from the party.
It would be recalled that after the primary election of the All Progressives Congress, which produced Aiyedatiwa as the candidate of the party, Jimoh, who is an aspirant in the contest, approached the court, seeking the nullification of the primary election.
