“The reasons behind his suspension include; Lack of paying attention to party activities at the ward level, Causing disunity among party members across all levels in the state, Misplacement of duties and responsibilities, Politics of segregation between party members among numerous issues.
“In view of this, sixteen out of twenty seven Ward Executives have signed for the suspension and that remains our stand.
“We are therefore calling on the APC National Headquarter to send caretaker Chairman who will lead the affairs of party before the next convention”.
