All Progressives Congress, the ruling political party in Nigeria, has suspended its National Chairman, Dr Abdullahi Ganduje over offences bordering on bribery.
He was suspended in his ward in Dawakin Tofa Local Government Area of Kano State.
The party ward legal adviser, Halliru Gwanzo, announced the suspension while addressing newsmen in Kano State.
Gwanzo cited allegations of bribery against Ganduje levelled by the Kano State Government as the reason for the suspension.
“We decided to suspend Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje from the party due to the seriousness of the allegations against him,” Gwanzo said.
Meanwhile, efforts to contact the Chief Press Secretary to the APC National Chairman, Mr Edwin Olufo, failed as his mobile phone was unreachable.
