Bribery Allegation: Kano APC Voids Ganduje’s Suspension, Sacks Ward Leaders

The leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Kano State Chapter, berated the APC Ganduje ward leaders on Monday, who had earlier suspended the National Chairman of the party, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje.

Recall that the Chairman of the APC in Ganduje’s ward, Inusa Suleiman Dawanau, had announced the suspension of Ganduje over alleged corruption.

The legal adviser to the party at the ward level, Halliru Gwanjo, said they decided to suspend Dr. Ganduje from the party due to the allegations levelled against him by the Kano State Government on bribery, with the suspension starting on Wednesday.

However, while speaking with newsmen shortly after an emergency meeting of the State Working Committee of the party, Abdullahi Abbas, the state Chairman of the party, accused Inusa Sulaiman Dawanau, and his cohorts of anti-party activities.

Abbas said, “We have it on good authority that these group disloyal members have been hobnobbing with the ruling NNPP-led administration in the state to execute a destabilisation act within the party.

”We have evidence of meetings between the State Government officials and those that suspended the National Chairman, and the state working committee has agreed to sanction them for six months, and they stand for suspended.”

He disclosed that they have since adopted the recommendation, and the decisions of the Local Government Party Leaders to suspend the errant ward officials, while the party at the State level is now investigating the anti-party activities of the culprits.
