OPC expels Baba Oodua, Kwara, Oyo, Ondo, Bayelsa coordinators

The National Coordinating Council (NCC) of Oodua Peoples Congress (OPC), on Thursday, announced the expulsion of some members for anti-congress activities and gross indiscipline “which will portray OPC as anti-people and lawless organisation”.
The former members are Marruf Salami (former Kwara State Coordinator) Adeola Adeagbo (former Oyo State Coordinator) Rotimi Akinsowon (former Ondo State Coordinator), Boye Mayungbe (former Baba Oodua) and Akeem Ologburo (former Bayelsa State Coordinator).
According to the Director of Media and Publicity, Yinka Oguntimehin, the Congress frowns seriously at the expelled members who have exhibited gross anti-congress activities and acts that may bring the Congress to public ridicule.
“OPC over the years has come out of various negative perceptions and the congress has, through its activities, which include cultural promotions and humanitarian services, complement the efforts of security agencies, especially in the South-West and also the formation of OPU spread across 63 countries over the world. So, it will not allow such ill mannered people to be in leadership positions, thereby breeding anti societal elements.
“Subsequently, they have been replaced with Oguntunde Rotimi Olumo (Oyo), Pius Ogunsanya (Ondo) who are to act as state coordinators and take charge of the state secretariats while competent hands will soon be appointed for other states. The media and the general public are, therefore, alerted”.
