The gubernatorial candidate contesting on the platform of Democratic People’s Congress (DPC), Hon. Philip Ezekiel Koleola was suspended on Tuesday, December 1, for alleged anti-party activities.
The candidate was suspended by the party's National Working Committee, Leadership reports.
The NWC decision was made known in a statement issued and signed
by the party’s national chairman, Rev. Olusegun Peters, in Abuja.
The suspension was a reaction to the petition received from the state chapter of the party against the flag bearer.

allegedly committed by the governorship candidate, Hon. Koleola, the NWC
of the party had to suspend him indefinitely.
“A disciplinary Committee will be set up to look into his
anti-party activities during the governorship election in the state, and
purported decision to go to court in collaboration with the Peoples
