The party has referred Ortom to its Disciplinary Committee to investigate the allegations and make recommendations on the appropriate action to take.
The party’s National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, made this known in a statement on Thursday, March 23.
He said that the party has suspended the former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, and a former Senate President and Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Anyim Pius Anyim.
