The All Progressives Congress (APC) has suspended Mustapha
Salihu, north-east vice-chairman, for six months over alleged “anti-party
activities”.
Salihu is said to be associating with Ahmadu Fintiri,
governor of Adamawa and a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Abdulkadir Abdullahi, Salihu’s ward chairman, was also
suspended.
Notices of their suspension were signed by Abdulhadi Ahmed,
vice-chairman of the Rumde ward, and Garba Mohammed, ward secretary.
The decision to suspend the duo was taken at an emergency executive
ward meeting on Sunday.
“The All Progressives Congress, Rumde ward working
committee, Yola north LGA held an emergency meeting on Sunday 19th February,
2023 and considered among many other things before it, the immediate suspension
of the north-east vice-chairman of the APC, Comrade Mustapha Salihu over
glaring and proven anti-party activities, gross abuse of office and creating
crisis within the ranks of the party at all levels which if left unchecked will
affect the party at the forthcoming general elections,” the suspension notice
to Salihu reads.
“Therefore, in compliance with the relevant provisions of
the constitution of our great party, the members of the working committee have
adopted and approved the suspension of comrade Mustapha Salihu for the period
of six months with immediate effect so as to serve as a deterrent to others in
the future.
“This committee is
very much aware of the responsibilities vested on it by the party and will
always ensure the supremacy of the party above any personal interest of any
person or group of persons especially when that poses danger to the chances of
the party at the polls.
“While appreciating the state working committee of our party
for your continued support, we hope our resolution will receive accelerated
treatment.”
Their suspension has been communicated to the party
leadership in Yola north LGA for transmission to the state working committee.
