APC suspends NDDC boss Lauretta Onochie

The All Progressives Congress has suspended the chairperson of the Niger Delta Development Commission, Lauretta Onochie, for alleged anti-party activities.

She was suspended by the party’s Ward 4 in the Aniocha North Local Government Area of Delta State.

In a suspension letter by the ward, Onochie was accused of campaigning for candidates of the opposition party in the last governorship election for the state.

She was also reported as not fulfilling her financial obligations to the party at the ward level.

A loss of confidence vote was passed on her.

The suspension letter signed by 27 Ward executives was titled: ‘Loss Of Confidence and Suspension of Lorreta Onochie as member of the All Progressives Congress（APC) in Onicha Olona Ward 4，aniocha North Local Government Area. Delta State’.
