Apc Forum Says Ganduje National Chairmanship Is Illegal.

North Central All Progressives Congress Forum has claimed that the National Chairmanship position occupied by Abdullahi Ganduje is illegal.

The forum also said, the continued occupation of the office of National Chairman of the APC could incur legal and unwanted liabilities for the party, including the Edo and Ondo State primary elections conducted under him.

This was disclosed by the forum’s counsel, Ayuba Abdul, after filing a suit before a Federal High Court in Abuja challenging Ganduje’s appointment to replace Abdullahi Adamu, who is from the North Central state of Nasarawa, in 2023, while, in the suit, the claimant is the North Central APC Forum, named Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, the APC and the Independent National Electoral Commission, as the first, second and third defendants respectively.

The suit, which is asking the court to set aside Ganduje’s appointment as the APC National Chairman, alleged that there is a failure on the part of the APC to comply with the procedure laid down by the party’s constitution.

Speaking after the suit alongside their counsel, the North Central APC Forum’s Chairman, Saleh Zazzaga, said their suit is for the sake of fairness and justice, saying that they have been calling on the party to do the needful all along but that the party did not oblige or take the necessary action, thereby prompting them to file the suit.
