Again, Another Ward Faction Suspends Abdullahi Ganduje From APC

In a fresh twist, another faction of the All Progressives Congress in Ganduje Ward, Dawakin Tofa Local Government Area, Kano State, has announced the suspension of the party’s National Chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje.

It is coming after the ward’s Legal Adviser, Haladu Gwanjo, last week announced the suspension of Ganduje for alleged corruption and other vices.

He said that the decision was taken by nine executive members of party in Ganduje ward.

The move was quickly countered by the state branch of the party who suspended the ward executives for their roles.

However, in a new twist in the early hours of Sunday, another group, which claimed to be the legitimate executives, yet again announced the suspension of Ganduje.

Addressing newsmen, the secretary of the faction, Ja’afar Ganduje, who spoke on behalf of 11 other executive members, hinged the suspension on alleged anti-party activities by Ganduje.

He said this was particularly during the last general election.

He also alleged that the APC national chairman had failed to pay his statutory dues to the party.

He further blamed Ganduje for contributing to the factionalisation of the party at the ward level, which he said had brought the party to disrepute.

“We are the authentic executives of Ganduje ward and we have passed a vote of no confidence and imposed a new suspension on Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje for series of reasons.

“First, we have suspended Dr. Ganduje’s membership for creating internal conflict among party members at the ward level.

“Another major reason why the authentic executives resolved to suspend Ganduje is the issue of anti-party activities he generated during the 2023 elections which resulted to the party’s failure in the state,” he said.
