Kabiru Tanimu Turaki’s wing of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has warned the public not to engage with some party members who, according to him, have been expelled.
In a statement signed by Turaki on Thursday, the faction named former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose, Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike, and nine other individuals who are no longer PDP members or hold any positions within the party due to their expulsion.
The message cautioned that any interactions with the individuals on the list are extremely risky because the PDP has not approved them.
Ezenwo Wike, Samuel Anyanwu, Ayo Fayose, Umar Bature, Kamaldeen Ajibade, Mao Ohuabunwa, George Turnah, Dan Orbih, Austin Nwachukwu, Mon’d Abdulrahman, and Abraham Amah were named by Turaki as PDP expelled members.
“This is to inform the general public that the following individuals whose pictures and names appear below are no longer members of the People Democratic Party (PDP) nor hold any office in the Party, having been expelled from the Party at the Year 2025 Elective National Convention held on November 15–16, 2025 at Ibadan, Oyo State, in accordance with the Constitution of our Party (as amended),” the disclaimer states.
1. Wike Ezenwo
2. Anyanwu Samuel
3. Fayose Ayo
4. Bature Umar
5. Ajibade Kamaldeen
6. Ohuabunwa Mao
7. Turnah George
8. Orbih Dan
9. Nwachukwu Austin
10. Abdulrahman Mon’d
11. Abraham Amah
“Our great Party does not authorize any interactions or representations made by these expelled members.”
“As a result, people who interact with these people do so at their own risk.”
According to reports, the disclaimer comes after a previous statement by the Wike-supporting PDP group that reiterated the expulsion of certain party members.
The group cautioned the public on Wednesday to be wary of imposters who continue to pose as party members in a statement issued by its National Secretary, Samuel Anyanwu.
According to the statement, in compliance with the modified 2017 PDP Constitution, the National Executive Committee expelled the concerned people on November 18 for alleged anti-party activities and gross misconduct.
