Dotun Babayemi (Osun State Chapter) was expelled by the Peoples Democratic Party for alleged anti-party activities.

Remember that Babayemi was a candidate for governorship in the parallel congress for Osun's governorship election. However, he did not become the PDP flagbearer.

His expulsion was announced by ward executive members of Otun Balogun 2 in Ayedaade Local Government Area of the state during a press briefing at the state secretariat in Osogbo on Friday, September 2.

Ogunleye Bukayo, Secretary of Ward, read the address for the exco. He stated that the factional governorship candidate was expelled because of a petition against him filed by some members of his party.

Bukayo said;

“The Ward Executive Committee of the party at its meeting of 20th July 2022 received the report of the disciplinary committee, and after careful and extensive deliberations ratified the report of the disciplinary committee.

“The Ward Executive Committee of the Party in the exercise of the powers conferred on it by sections 57(2) and 59 (1) (g) of the constitution of PDP hereby remove and expel Prince Dotun Babayemi from the Peoples Democratic Party. He, therefore, ceases to be a member of the PDP henceforth.”
