However, the five aggrieved governors of the PDP identified as the G-5 escaped the sanction of the main opposition party.
The governors have been in disagreement with the presidential candidate of the party, Atiku Abubakar and had threatened to work against him.
The G-5 governors have expressed their displeasure with northern dominance in key positions in the party and had called for the National Chairman of the party, Iyorchia Ayu to step down for a southerner.
A source that spoke with Vanguard on the suspension of the party chieftains said, the suspension of the G-5 governors was not discussed by the party leadership.
Giving the reason for not sanctioning the governors, the source said, “No, despite all of their antics, they have consistently announced their membership and loyalty to the party. None of them has been engaged in an open and direct campaign for our opponents.
