Crisis In Edo Labour Party As Four Members Are Suspended


A new wave of crisis is currently brewing in the Edo State chapter of Labour Party as the party on Friday suspended three members indefinitely.

Those suspended by the party included Paul Murphy Imasuen; Ikuoyemwen Ehiwe; Jegede Idemudia; Captain Oronsaye Augustine.

A statement signed by by the state chairman of the party Kelly Ogbaloi and other excos of the party including his local government chairmen – Orhionmwon local lovernment, said the decision was reached after an expansive meeting of the State Working Committee (SWC) held in Benin.

The statement reads in part: “The state exco met to review its activities and take reports from the State Working Committee (SWC) on the day to day running of our great party.

“That Mr. Paul Murphy Imasuen is suspended indefinitely from Labour Party. Other suspended from the party along with him are: Mr. Ikuoyemwen Ehiwe Mr. Jegede Idemudia.”

Calls put across to Murphy did not connect as his cellphone numbers were switched off. SMS sent to him were yet to be replied as at when filing this report.
