Edo APC Moves to Suspend Forestry Commission Chairman Valentine Asuen for Undermining Party Unity

The Edo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress has taken decisive action by moving to suspend Valentine Asuen, the Chairman of the state's Forestry Commission, following confirmed reports of his involvement in activities aimed at undermining the party's unity and integrity. This development comes after thorough deliberations by the party's leadership, which concluded that Asuen's actions constituted a clear violation of the party's constitution and its core principles.

The suspension process was initiated after evidence emerged showing Asuen had engaged in unauthorized meetings with opposition figures and made public statements criticizing the party's leadership decisions. Party officials stated these actions were particularly damaging given Asuen's position as a former senatorial candidate and his current role as a government appointee. The party's disciplinary committee has compiled a detailed report documenting multiple instances of anti-party activities, including attempts to influence other members to oppose the party's official candidates in recent local council elections.

This move has sparked various reactions within the party's ranks, with some members expressing support for the disciplinary action while others have called for further investigation. Sources within the party indicate that the suspension is part of broader efforts to maintain discipline and unity within the APC's Edo State chapter, especially with upcoming local government elections approaching. The party leadership has emphasized its commitment to enforcing its rules uniformly among all members, regardless of their positions or political influence.

The situation remains developing as party officials continue their investigation into the matter, with further announcements expected regarding the duration of the suspension and any additional disciplinary measures. Political observers in Edo State are watching these developments closely, noting that this action could have significant implications for the party's internal dynamics and its preparedness for future elections in the state.
