In a continuing saga within the All Progressives Congress, another faction in Ganduje Ward, Dawakin Tofa Local Government Area, Kano State, has declared the suspension of Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje, the National Chairman, from the party.
This latest development, announced on Sunday, marks the second suspension of Ganduje within a short span, as tensions within the party continue to escalate.
Malam Haladu Gwanjo, identifying himself as the Legal Adviser of the faction, cited allegations of corruption and misconduct as grounds for Ganduje’s suspension, a sentiment echoed by nine other executive members.
In response, the faction led by Ward Chairman Malam Ahmad Ganduje has reaffirmed its support for Ganduje’s leadership, urging party members to remain calm amidst the turmoil.
However, a new twist emerged on Sunday, with another faction claiming legitimacy and announcing yet another suspension of Ganduje.
Speaking on behalf of 11 executive members, Secretary Malam Ja’afar Ganduje accused Ganduje of engaging in anti-party activities during the recent general elections, among other grievances.
The factionalization within Ganduje Ward underscores the deepening rifts within the APC, further complicating the party’s internal dynamics and casting a shadow over its unity and cohesion.
