Former Vice President Of Orashi National Congress, Chief Gospel Ebiga Expelled For Insubordination

In a decisive move, the Orashi National Congress (ONC), a widely recognized socio-cultural organization, has expelled its former Vice President, Chief Gospel Ebiga, citing gross misconduct and insubordination.

In an official letter signed by the President-General of ONC, Amb. Comr. Emeni Ibe (JP AP), the organization stated that Chief Ebiga had persistently disrespected the leadership, disregarded established protocols and disseminated false information to tarnish the image of the congress.

The statement emphasized that his actions were against the core values and regulations guiding the organization’s operations.

The decision to expel the former Vice President follows the findings of ONC’s disciplinary committee, which noted his unrepentant behaviour despite multiple reconciliation attempts, including a recent intervention at a church meeting. The leadership of ONC also cited concerns over Ebiga’s continued insubordination and refusal to align with the group’s guiding principles.

“As a globally recognized body, the Orashi National Congress upholds discipline, integrity, and mutual respect. Chief Gospel Ebiga’s actions have been deemed detrimental to the unity and progress of our esteemed organization. Therefore, his expulsion is final and irrevocable,” the statement read.

Furthermore, the congress advised Ebiga and his associates to exercise their freedom of association by forming their own group rather than parading as members of ONC.

The expulsion marks a significant moment in ONC’s internal affairs, underscoring the leadership’s commitment to accountability and organizational discipline. Stakeholders within the Orashi region and beyond will be watching closely to see the next steps following this development.

Following the announcement, reactions have been mixed. Some members of the ONC have applauded the leadership for taking a firm stance against indiscipline, while others express concerns about potential divisions within the congress.

“This is a necessary decision to maintain order and protect the credibility of our organization,” said a senior member of the congress who spoke on condition of anonymity.

Chief Gospel Ebiga has yet to officially respond to the expulsion, but sources close to him suggest he may challenge the decision or seek an alternative platform to continue his activism.

As events unfold, the ONC leadership remains steadfast in upholding the organization’s values and ensuring that all members adhere to its code of conduct.
