A fresh crisis is brewing in the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the National Chairman of the party, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje has been suspended from the party in Kano State.
Ganduje was suspended for alleged corruption including allegations of bribery levelled against him by the Kano State Government.
The former governor was suspended by the executive members of Ganduje Ward in the Dawakin-Tofa local government area of Kano State.
The legal adviser of the ward, Halliru Gwanzo, addressed journalists on Monday, on the suspension.
Gwanzo accused the former governor of gross misconduct and misappropriation of public funds during his administration in the state.
He said that the suspension of the party national chairman was a unanimous decision of the members of the ward.
He said Ganduje could not clear his name amid corruption allegations that followed the 8-year administration.
“We decided to suspend Dr. Ganduje from the party due to the seriousness of the allegations against him,” Gwanzo stated.
