The Rivers State chapter of the Labour Party (LP) has indefinitely suspended its Caretaker Chairman, Hilda Dokubo, following allegations of gross misconduct, extortion, and negligence.
Dokubo’s suspension was initiated by Ward 3 of the Asari-Toru Local Government Area (ASALGA).
A statement dated February 2, 2025, obtained by DAILY POST, confirmed that the suspension letter was jointly signed by O.C. Princewill (Chairman, Ward 3 ASALGA), Pastor Lucky Mac-Jaja Amachree (Vice Chairman, Ward 3 ASALGA), Florence Solomon (Secretary, Ward 3 ASALGA), and Iwowari George (Women Leader, Ward 3 ASALGA).
The letter, addressed to the National Chairman of the Labour Party, urged an immediate investigation into Dokubo’s conduct.
Among the allegations raised were the unlawful inflation of fees for the Rivers State Independent Electoral Commission (RSIEC) screening and nomination forms during recent local government elections and alleged negotiations over party positions.
