“Adamu is also found guilty of bringing the image of the party to disrepute, thereby creating doubt about his leadership quality and loyalty to the party”

For derogating and denigrating President Muhammadu Buhari, the All Progressives Congress (APC) has expelled the party’s Caretaker Chairman for Yola South council area of Adamawa State, Alhaji Sulaiman Adamu.

Adamu’s expulsion has been ratified by the party’s National Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) at its 16th meeting on Wednesday in Abuja.

The expulsion takes immediate effect, according to a statement on Thursday in Abuja by Committee’s Secretary, Senator John James Akpanudoedehe.

“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.

“Recall the viral video in which Alhaji Adamu made unwholesome utterances against President Muhammadu Buhari, the Leader of the party.

“Adamu is also found guilty of bringing the image of the party to disrepute, thereby creating doubt about his leadership quality and loyalty to the party,” Akpanudoedehe said.

“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.”
