But the lawmaker, debunking the report via his Twitter account on Thursday evening, said “hired hacks” are behind the rumours.

According to him, his relationship with the party was very cordial and the initiators of the claim were engaged by some corrupt politicians in Abuja to distract him.

He said, “My attention has been drawn to a false claim attributed to some mischievous impersonators that I’ve been expelled from my party, the APC

“This report, I’ve gathered, came from a known fraudster who is neither chair of my party at the LG level nor a part of the state party EXCO

“The party at the federal, state and LG level is not even aware of this false news and impersonation making the rounds in the media.

“This is yet another round of character assassinations from career political antagonizers who are threatened by our anti corruption crusade

“Recall that I honored the invitation of the EFCC in a bid to shed light on the cases of corruption by some principal officers of the house despite dissuasions by these saboteurs of my party’s change agenda and stand against corruption. They wished I did not honour the EFCC invite.

“I wish to remind the public, and especially the media, that this report is false and did not originate from my party, the APC.

“I have a cordial relationship with my party the APC and we have been working hand in hand to actualize our agenda for a better Nigeria.”
