Ade Ajayi, said the two were disciplined by party leaders for factionalising the party, saying the suspension had nothing to do with SWAGA.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re a vicious leader, have intentions of setting APC ablaze\u201d \u2013 Sen. Adeyeye hits Gov. Fayemi<br \/>\nAjayi, who is also from Ayede Ekiti, said the report from the Ward indicated that the two were defying party\u2019s orders and dividing the party through their actions<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey were not suspended because of SWAGA. But they have been dividing the party and all efforts to rein them in failed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey were invited to defend themselves, they confirmed it and party supremacy had to come to play. Nobody is bigger than the party\u201d, he said.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For allegedly hobnobbing with the South West Agenda for 2023 (SWAGA), a political platform rooting for the Presidential aspiration of the former Lagos State Governor, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":61564,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-82423","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
