The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Icheke Ward, Omala LGA of Kogi State, has lifted the suspension of an aspirant in the party’s governorship primary prelude to the November 16, 2019 Kogi State governorship election, Alhaji Abubakar Ibrahim.
The party in a statement said it has withdrawn its earlier suspension of Alh. Abubakar Ibrahim, after due consultations.
The PDP in Icheke Ward said at no time did it expel the aspirant, noting that after consultation with the party leaders and stakeholders, it had withdrawn the suspension of the governorship aspirant.
The letter lifting the suspension was signed by Idakwoji Sunday, Chairman, and eighteen other executives of the Ward.
