By BASHIR ADEFAKA
Crisis rocking the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano State has taken fresh dimension as new Executives, which emerged from Ganduje Ward, issue fresh suspension on the National Chairman of the party, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje.
Besides the issuance of fresh suspension, the new group from Ganduje Ward in the Dawakin Tofa Local Government Area of the state claimed to be the legitimate Ward Executives, legally and validly elected on 31st July, 2021.

Addressing Journalists in Kano, on Sunday, Secretary of the Ganduje Ward, Ja’afar Adamu Ganduje, who spoke on behalf of 11 other executive members, explained that suspension of the former Governor of Kano State was necessited on allegation of anti-party activities exhibited by him, which led to the division and failure of the party during the last election.

Adamu, who is Ganduje’s nephew, also accused Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje of igniting conflict of interest that led to two factional excos in the ward, and thereby brought the party to disrepute in the eyes of the public.
The secretary equally alleged the embattled APC National Chairman had not been paying his statutory party’s dues.
According to Adamu, “We are the authentic executives of Ganduje Ward and we have passed a vote of no confidence and imposed a new suspension on Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje for series of reasons.
“First we have suspended Dr. Ganduje’s membership for creating internal conflict among party members at the ward level. Another major reason why the authentic executives resolved to suspend Ganduje is the issue of anti-party activities he generated during the 2023 elections, which resulted to the party’s failure in the state”.
Adamu emphasised that those two factions claiming to be exco from Ganduje ward are fake and impostors orchestrated by Dr. Ganduje and other bad elements in the party.
Adamu reiterated that the real Ganduje ward leaders would not hesitate to Institute legal action against the two factions that earlier addressed the media claiming to be the ward excos.
This and more have been summed together as justifying the fresh suspension of the APC National Chairman from the membership of the party by his ward.
