APC Denies Receiving Suspension Order for Kano Governor Ganduje

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has denied receiving any suspension order for Kano State Governor Abdullahi Ganduje. This comes amid reports circulating that the party had taken disciplinary action against the governor.

In a statement released on Tuesday, APC National Publicity Secretary Felix Morka clarified the party's position . "The attention of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has been drawn to a document in circulation purporting to be a suspension order for His Excellency, Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State," Morka said. "The document is fake and did not emanate from the Party."

Morka emphasized that the APC has well-established processes and procedures for taking disciplinary action against any member, including elected officials. He stated that no such action has been initiated against Governor Ganduje.

"Governor Ganduje remains a bonafide member and leader of the APC," Morka affirmed. "He is not under any suspension order from the Party."

The APC spokesperson urged party members and the general public to disregard the circulating document, labeling it as a "mischievous attempt" to create confusion and mislead people. Morka called for unity within the party and cautioned against the spread of false information.
