APC Expels Taraba Senator-Elect Who Defeated Gov Ishaku

The Taraba State Chapter of All Progressives Congress (APC), Takum Local Government Area chapter, has expelled the Senator-elect for the Southern Senatorial District, David Jimkuta, from the party over anti-party activities.

This is contained in a letter dated April 7, and signed by the party’s council chairman Hon. Sirajo Sallau.

Sallau explained that the expulsion of the Senator-elect from the party followed due deliberations of the report of the disciplinary committee set up to investigate allegations of gross anti-party activities against the Senator-elect, David Jimkuta.

The letter titled, ‘Expulsion of Hon. Jimkuta S.U David from the All Progressives Congress APC for gross anti-party activities’ reads in part that “the Takum local government executive committee of our party, after due deliberation of the report of the disciplinary committee set up to investigate allegations of gross anti-party activities against Hon. Jimkuta S.U David as provided under article 21(B) (i) -(vI) of the All Progressives Congress constitution, has resolved to and expelled him from the party as recommended by the disciplinary committee.

“The anti-party activities forming the bases of this action include, sponsorship and openly campaigning for a rival political party, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Taraba State and its governorship candidate.

“Open, express and tacit denunciation of the All Progressives Congress and its governorship candidate, and openly canvassing votes for the people’s Democratic party and its governorship candidate in the last general election”.
