Kogi APC Crisis: ‘Only Convention Can Expel Party Members’

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has clarified that neither state nor zonal executives, constituted in whatever name or form can expel anyone from the party. Only convention can do so.

In a statement signed by the National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, the APC restated that the State Working Committee of the party in Kogi State led by the Chairman, Alhaji Haddy Ametuo remains the only recognised executive committee of the party in the State.

The statement partly reads, “Any disciplinary action being contemplated must be referred to the Party’s National Working Committee (NWC). That is the position of the constitution.

“Again, we enjoin all party members at all levels to desist from taking unilateral actions that are likely to further jeopardise the on-going peace process.”
