The All Progressives Congress (APC) Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) has ratified the expulsion of the Party’s Caretaker Chairman of Yola South Local Government Area, Adamawa State, Alhaji Sulaiman Adamu.
The Adamawa State Chapter of the party, had on August 10th 2021, suspended Adamu for allegedly attacking President Muhammadu Buhari on social media. Adamu, in audio circulated on social media, wished that coronavirus had inflicted President Buhari and killed him.
According to a statement signed by party’s National Secretary, Sen. John James Akpanudoedehe, Adamu’s expulsion from the party takes immediate effect.
The statement partly reads:
The is part of the resolutions reached at the 16th meeting of the CECPC held at the Party’s National Secretariat, Buhari House in Abuja on Wednesday, September 1, 2021.
The CECPC recieved and deliberated on the report of his infractions and recommendations of the 7-member disciplinary committee setup by the Adamawa State Working Committee to investigate the offences committed by Alhaji Sulaiman Adamu against the interest of the party.
Recall the viral video in which Alhaji Sulaiman Adamu made unwholesome utterences on President Muhammadu Buhari, the Leader of the Party.
He was also found guilty of bringing the image of the party to disrepute thereby creating doubt on his leadership quality and loyalty to the party.
The CECPC calls on party members to always demonstrate self-discipline and restraint by desisting from acts and utterances that are inimical to the interest of the party.
