The All Progressives Congress, APC, has suspended Mallam Adamu Ototobor, Chairman of Ward 9 in Etsako East Local Government Area of Edo State, over alleged acts of insubordination and misconduct.
The suspension was announced in a statement issued by the Edo State APC Publicity Secretary, Prince Peter Uwadiae, who confirmed that the decision takes immediate effect following a comprehensive review of Ototobor’s recent activities within the party.
According to the statement, the party leadership found Ototobor’s actions to be “inconsistent with the principles, discipline, and values of the APC in Edo State,” adding that his conduct amounted to a breach of party rules and constituted insubordination to constituted authority.
The statement also directed the APC Chairman of Etsako East Local Government Area to prevent Ototobor from attending or participating in any party meetings, events, or functions pending the outcome of further disciplinary proceedings.
“The All Progressives Congress remains a party founded on discipline, loyalty, and respect for constituted authority. Any act that seeks to undermine these core values will be met with appropriate sanctions. Mallam Adamu Ototobor’s suspension shall remain in force until it is officially lifted by the party’s competent authority,” the statement read.
