The
Kaduna State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC), yesterday
disagreed with the zonal leadership of the party on the suspension of
Senator Shehu Sani from the party, saying that it stands.
National Vice Chairman (North-West) of the party, Barrister Inuwa
Abdulkadir, had after meeting with party stakeholders in the state on
Monday, lifted the suspension of Sani.
State Publicity Secretary of the APC, Salisu Tanko Wusono, said in
lifting the suspension, Abdulkadir acted without the consent of the
national leadership of the party, contrary to Section 21 of the APC
constitution.
He said Abdulkadir’s action was a deliberate attempt to ridicule the
party for his personal interest.
“The 11-month suspension slammed on Shehu Sani by the Kaduna State APC
stands. Alhaji Inuwa Abdulkadir does not have the power to lift the
suspension, and was acting on his own without any authorization by the
national leadership of the party.
“What happened on Monday in Kaduna between Abdulkadir and the so-called
APC chieftains was an abuse of his office in promoting the narrow
agenda of people who have never been interested in the progress and
success of the APC,” he said.
The spokesman added that Shehu Sani and his group are trying to use the
back door to get back to the party, having realised the failure of their
attempts to destroy the party in the state.
“Shehu Sani is only wasting his time, running from pillar to pillar.
Why is he not attending President Buhari and Vice President Osinbajo’s
functions in Kaduna? Why is he not participating in our activities? Why
is it that the PDP senator from Southern Kaduna attends critical state
functions and not him?
“All the 11 APC lawmakers in House of Reps from the state are loyal to
our leadership. All the 28 APC lawmakers in the Kaduna State House of
Assembly are standing by the party and its government,” he added.
A source at the national headquarters of the party described the
development as unfortunate.
He said the case was being handled at the zonal headquarters of the PDP.
“We hope everything would be resolved at that level. However, if the
issue persists, appropriate action would be taken at the national
level,” he added.
