The All Progressives Congress in Kebbi State has suspended the Chairman of Birnin Kebbi Local Government Area, Alhaji Dahiru Ambursa, from the party with immediate effect over alleged misconduct.
The suspension was conveyed in a letter signed by the Kebbi Central Zonal Vice Chairman of the APC, Abubakar Bello, and made available to journalists on Monday.
According to the letter, the decision followed what the party described as “credible reports and findings” accusing Ambursa of abusing his office and engaging in actions capable of “undermining, ridiculing, embarrassing and causing disunity within the party.”
The APC said the alleged conduct was detrimental to the party’s unity and public image, noting that it violated Article 21 (2)(ii) of the APC Constitution (2022, as amended), which outlines offences relating to anti-party activities and misconduct by party members.
“As part of the disciplinary measures, you are hereby directed to refrain from entering any APC office for the duration of your suspension,” the letter stated.
The party further warned that any repetition or continuation of the alleged acts during the suspension period could attract stiffer sanctions, including possible expulsion from the APC.
Birnin Kebbi, the state capital, is one of the most politically significant local government areas in Kebbi State, and developments within its leadership often carry wider implications for party cohesion and grassroots mobilisation.
The suspension comes amid growing internal tensions within the APC in Kebbi State, as the party intensifies efforts to enforce discipline among elected officials ahead of future electoral contests.
In recent months, the APC leadership in the state has repeatedly reiterated its commitment to upholding party rules and sanctioning officials found culpable of actions capable of weakening internal unity or undermining public confidence in the party
