Former Senate Minority Leader, Senator Godswill Akpbio has faulted a suit seeking his sack along with some other lawmakers who defected from their parties last year.
While tendering two exhibits, Ameh told the court that his client was suspended from the People’s Democratic Party at his ward level and that he was later expelled from the same PDP at the local government level. He argued that an uncommon situation was foisted on his client, having been thrown out of the PDP by the officials of the party.Ameh urged the court to accept the peculiar fact that Akpabio did not willingly abandon the PDP that provided the platform for him to access the Senate in 2015, but that he defected because of the way the party treated him.
