The Kebbi State chapter of the African Democratic Congress has suspended members of its leadership over allegations of misconduct, financial mismanagement and poor leadership.
At a press briefing in Birnin Kebbi on Tuesday, the State Publicity Secretary, Jamilu Muhammad, announced the suspension of the party chairman, Sufiyanu Bala, Deputy Chairman, Junaidu Muhammed Mudi, and Secretary, Hawwa’u Muhammed.
He said the action followed extensive consultations with party stakeholders.
Muhammad accused the trio of diverting party funds for personal use, taking unilateral decisions without the State Working Committee’s consent, and failing to uphold transparency, accountability, and party unity.
“They have failed to position the ADC for political relevance in Kebbi State,” he alleged.
The party appointed Abdulrazaq Abubakar Isah Iko as Acting Chairman and Adamu Aliyu as Acting Secretary.
The party also warned the public against transacting any party business with the suspended officials and urged INEC and security agencies to clamp down on early political campaigns in breach of the Electoral Act.
