“Regrettably, you refused and or neglected to appear before the Disciplinary Committee set up to look into the matter, to allow you to present your defense accordingly.

“Accordingly, you are hereby found guilty and you are hereby expelled from Peoples Democratic Party, Kaiama Ward 1 from today, the 11th day of December 2023, by S.59 (i) (g) of the Peoples Democratic Party constitution.

“By this, you hereby lose all your rights as a member and as an official of the Peoples Democratic Party.”
