The party also expelled all the members of the party who were yesterday inaugurated as caretaker committee members of the state, local governments and wards in the state by Igo Aguma.
Ogbubula whose faction is loyal to Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, announced the suspension at a media briefing on Saturday, saying the decision to suspend the two chieftains was taken at a meeting of the committee today saying their expulsion came following reports from ward 16 in Gokana Local Government Area against Senator Abe and from ward 2 in Port Harcourt Local Government Area in the case of Aguma.
The former Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Wogu Booms as well as Livingstone Nweche, who is the media adviser to Aguma were also suspended indefinitely.
Ogbubula said the state committee has recommended their expulsion from the party, but there is no final word on that.
