In a quick reaction, the party’s local government officials thwarted the suspension and sacked those behind it.
Speaking with newsmen, the Chairman of the APC in Dawakin Tofa Local Government, Inusa Dawanau, revealed that individuals responsible for the suspension of the National Chairman had engaged in anti-party activities, with evidence of their interactions with opposition members brought to light.
Adopting the suspension of the APC Ward APC leaders, the state working committee of the Party said they have sanctioned the perpetrators for six months and a special investigations panel has been set up to verify allegations against them.
The Kano Chairman of the Party, Abdullahi Abbas, said the decisions of the LG Party Leaders have since been adopted.
“We have evidence of meetings between the state government officials and those that suspended the National Chairman. The state working committee has agreed to sanction them for six months and they stand now suspended.”
