Boss Mustapha has been suspended indefinitely.
Newsone reports that the Adamawa State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Nigeria’s ruling party, has suspended the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha, for losing his polling unit to the Peoples Democratic Party at the presidential and governorship polls.
This online news platform understands that SGF Boss Mustapha suspension was announced at a press conference in Yola by the chairman of Gwadabawa Ward following complaints from his ward.
The APC Gwadabawa Ward Chairman disclosed that the SGF did not contribute to the victory of its presidential and governorship candidates, adding that no individual could be above the party that gave them the platform.
However, in a sudden twist to the announcement of the indefinite suspension slammed on the SGF, the State Working Committee of the party under the leadership of the acting Chairman, Chief Samaila Tadawus, declared the announcement as “unconstitutional, null and void and of no effect.”
The Adamawa State APC SWC, also announced the directive on the local government executive committee of Yola North, to constitute a disciplinary committee to investigate and recommend appropriate action immediately.
Newsone Nigeria reports that the Secretary of the party, Dr. Raymond Chidama, who addressed journalists at the party secretariat on behalf of the SWC, frowned at the penchant of party members who were being sponsored by “opposition elements within the party with malicious intent to attack elders of the party through actions that flagrantly disregard the party’s constitution.”
His words: “We hereby state clearly that such suspension is unconstitutional, null and void and is of no effect, because the state working committee has warned the ward executives in the past to desist from this acts of targeting elders of the party and disregarding constitutional provisions, appropriate sanctions will be applied after thorough investigations.”
