The Jiwa ward chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has passed a vote of confidence on the leadership of the Executive Chairman of Abuja Municipal Area Council, AMAC, Honourable Abdullahi Adamu Candido, for his numerous political virtues and commitment to upholding the ideals and extant laws regulating the party.
In a letter jointly signed by the ward executives of the party and forwarded to the National, State and Local Government chairmen of the party, a letter dated 3rd June, 2021 purportedly suspending Candido from the party was condemned and it was described as mere falsehood which was not from them.
They lauded his leadership qualities and resolved to solidly stand and support him to continue with the good work he has started.
According to them ” All the allegations contained in the letter were figment of imaginations of the authors as there was never such complaint that was made to the party at any level”.
The executives said the Constitution of the party provides detailed disciplinary procedure against its erring members and as such, their purported letter of suspension clearly violates not only the Constitution of the party, but also the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 as amended.
According to the Executives, “Nevertheless, to the best of our knowledge, there has never been any complaint to the party against Hon. Abdullahi Adamu Candido for any wrong doing whatsoever. Also, we never had cause to, and he has never been subjected to any form of discciplinary procedure or been disciplined by our party.
“All we know about him is that he is law abiding and has offered hope to our teeming supporters and ignited in people a passion for love, unity, politics and discipline.”
While calling to disregard the letter, they said, “it should be immedi ately investigated with a view to applying the necessary sanction in the best interest of the party.”
