Rivers Minority Leader, Benibo Anabraba Kicked Out Of APC

The All Progressives Congress in Rivers has expelled the Minority Leader in the state House of Assembly, Mr Benibo Anabraba, over alleged anti-party activities.

Anabraba is the APC legislator representing Akuku-Toru Constituency 2 in the assembly.

The APC Chairman in the state, Chief Davies Ikanya,  in an expulsion letter on Monday, said that the State Working Committee of the party expelled Anabraba for allegedly failing to attend meetings to clear the allegations against him after three invitations.

It alleged that Anabraba’s refusal to attend the proceedings on the three occasions he was invited confirmed his disrespect to constituted authority.

He said, “The party considers your wilful and deliberate refusal to make yourself available to answer to the allegations against you as sufficient confirmation that the said allegations against you are true.

“Therefore, the party pursuant to relevant provisions of the constitution of the APC (Oct. 2014 as amended), particularly Article 21 (A) ii, iii, hereby expels you from the party.”

Efforts to reach Anabraba for his reaction failed as he was not in his office at the assembly and would not pick calls put through to his GSM line.
