The All Progressives Congress, APC Kogi State chapter, has approved the suspension of a member of the National Working Committee, NWC of the party, Murtala Yakubu (Ajaka) by the executive members of Ajaka Ward 1 of the party.

Yakubu, who is the Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the party, had been suspended by the entire executive members of APC, Ajaka Ward 1, Igalamela/Odolu Local Government Area of Kogi State, in a letter dated March 20, over alleged anti-party activities, insubordination, gross misconduct, unguided statement, running parallel party structure and encouraging factionalism in the party.

Reacting to the action of the ward executives, the leadership of the party in the state, in a statement signed by the State Secretary, Hon. Joshua Emmanuel, affirmed Yakubu’s suspension, saying that, consequently, he had been barred from participating in all party activities.

The statement, titled, “Approval and implication of the suspension of Hon.

“The Kogi State Executive Committee of the APC, having perused the facts as alleged and established both the veracity and the gravity of the anti-party activities made out against him, has approved the disciplinary action, ie. suspension, meted to him by the appropriate organs below.
