The Kebbi State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has announced the suspension of its State Chairman, Alhaji Abubakar Muhammad Kana-Zuru, and the APC Chairman of Zuru Local Government Area, Hon. Aliyu Abubakar Abiola, over allegations of misconduct and failure to adhere to party regulations.

The decision was reportedly taken following complaints from party stakeholders who accused the affected officials of actions deemed inconsistent with the principles and operational guidelines of the ruling party.

According to party sources, the suspension followed a review of concerns raised by members regarding the leadership style and commitment of the officials to party affairs. The allegations include inadequate consultation with stakeholders, failure to properly coordinate party activities, and actions considered detrimental to unity within the party structure.

The APC leadership in the state said the measure was necessary to preserve discipline, accountability, and adherence to the party's constitution. It noted that the suspension would remain in effect pending the outcome of investigations into the allegations.

The development has generated reactions among party members and political observers in Kebbi State, with some describing the action as an internal effort to strengthen party cohesion ahead of future political activities.

While details of the allegations are yet to be fully disclosed, party officials emphasized that the APC remains committed to ensuring that all members, regardless of position, operate within the framework of the party's rules and regulations.

The suspended officials have not publicly responded to the action at the time of filing this report.

Political analysts say the development highlights ongoing efforts by political parties across the country to address internal disputes and reinforce discipline among their leadership ranks.

The APC in Kebbi State is expected to announce interim arrangements for the affected positions as investigations continue.
