On Thursday, the Labour Party Chairman in Rivers State, Mrs. Hilda Dokubo, was suspended as a member of the party in her ward, Asari Toru Local Government Area.
The suspension was communicated through a letter addressed to the Labour Party Chairman of Asari Toru LGA, signed by Ward Chairman Mr. Ajalamonia Ibama, Secretary Mr. Lole Amacheer, Treasurer Mr. Emmanuel Ibamathe, Women Leader Mrs. Osaki Dieypiriye, and Publicity Secretary Mr. Osaki Dokubo.
Dokubo’s suspension occurred on July 15 following an emergency meeting of the ward executive committee and was ratified by the Asari Toru LGA Executives on July 18.
The ward officials cited allegations of financial misconduct, abuse of office, and breach of party regulations as reasons for the suspension. They claimed that a thorough investigation into these allegations uncovered substantial evidence, prompting their decision.
