National Working Committee of All Progressives Congress has lifted the suspension it placed on Governor of Ondo State, Mr Rotimi Akeredolu; and immediate-past governors of Ogun and Imo states, Messers Ibikunle Amosun and Rochas Okorocha, respectively.

APC NWC also pardoned Messers Osita Okechukwu and Usani Usani, who were earlier suspended.

APC National Publicity Secretary, Mr Lanre Issa-Onilu, announced the NWC’s decisions in a statement issued in Abuja on Monday.

He said the suspension of the men was reviewed and lifted in line with the party’s deliberate policy of fairness and actions targeted at ensuring harmony within the fold of the ruling party across the country.

“Through the suspension, our party has shown the capacity and willingness to implement its own rules and enforce discipline when there is an infraction.

“We have also shown that no individual is above discipline and that the leadership of the party will always apply equity and justice in the day-to-day running of the party.

“We hope the concerned party members will seize this opportunity to fully reconcile themselves with their ward, local government area, and state party structures.

”They will key into the party activities, and continue to make their own contributions to the growth and stability of the party,” Issa-Onilu said in the statement.
