BENIN CITY — The Edo State chapter of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has distanced itself from the activities of its former chairman, Kennedy Odion, warning him against issuing statements or convening meetings in the name of the party.
The state chairman of the party, Tony Alile, in a statement on Sunday, said Odion’s tenure had expired on May 19, 2026, adding that he was among members expelled during the party’s National Convention held in Abuja earlier this year.
Alile cautioned Odion against using the party’s name and materials to communicate with members or the public, insisting that he was no longer recognised as an official of the party.
“According to the records available to the party, Mr. Odion was expelled following disciplinary proceedings concluded at the National Convention held in Abuja on 14 April 2026. In addition, the tenure of the State Executive Committee under which he served expired on 19 May 2026,” the statement read.
