APC sacks council chairman for ‘insulting’ President Buhari

Alhaji Sulaiman Adamu, the Caretaker Chairman of the Yola South Local Government Area in Adamawa State has been sacked by The All Progressives Congress (APC) for allegedly insulting President Buhari.

You would recall that in a video that has since gone viral, Alhaji Adamu had made some derogatory statements against President Muhammadu Buhari.

In a move seen as disciplinary, the party’s Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) has consequently ratified the expulsion of Alhaji Sulaiman Adamu’s from the party.

A statement released read: “The CECPC received and deliberated on the report of his (Adamu’s) infractions and recommendations of the seven-member disciplinary committee set up by the Adamawa State Working Committee to investigate the offences committed by Alhaji Adamu against the interest of the party.”

Alhaji Adamu was also found guilty of bringing the image of the party to disrepute, thereby creating doubt about his leadership quality and loyalty to the party.

The CECPC consequently called 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.

Senator John James Akpanudoedehe, the Secretary of the CECPC said the expulsion takes immediate effect.
