For defecting to other parties, former Speaker of Delta State House of Assembly, Victor Ochei, and former Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Oharisi Ovie Omo-Agege, were, on Thursday, expelled by the state chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
The duo contested the December 8, 2014 governorship primaries and they lost to Senator Ifeanyi Okowa.
After the primaries, Ochei joined Accord Party and became its Delta North senatorial candidate while Omo-Agege picked the Delta Central senatorial ticket of the Labour Party.
Others expelled by the PDP were a former member of the House of Representatives, Mrs. Doris Uboh, who is now the Accord Party House of Representatives candidate for Ika federal constituency and Accord Party candidate for Aniocha/Oshimili Federal Constituency, Ngozi Okolie.
State PDP Chairman, Chief Edwin Uzor, confirmed their expulsion.
“Any member of the PDP who left the party to contest against the party’s candidate from another party has been expelled. We rose from a meeting this morning and their expulsion was approved. I am telling you this as the chairman of the party,” he said.
