Naija News understands that Odefa has been suspended by the Ogudu-Okwolu Ward Chapter of the party in Onitsha Local Government Area of Ebonyi State.
The suspension, which is effective immediately, was announced after a meeting of the district executive committee in Abuja on Friday.
At a press conference in Abuja, the Acting Chairman of PDP Ogudu-Okwolu Ward, Mr. Herbert Onyedikachi, along with other members, gave details regarding the decision.
