State chairmen of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) have declared the purported suspension of the party’s 2023 election presidential candidate, Mr Dumebi Kachikwu as null and void.
The National Working Committee of the party suspended Kachikwu on Friday over alleged anti-party activities.
His suspension was contained in a statement released on today Saturday by the Deputy National Chairman (Politics) of the party, Mr Bamidele Ajadi.
Mr Ajadi accused Mr Kachikwu of making “defamatory’’ statements that contravened the values of the ADC. He also accused him of other anti-party acts.
Mr Ajadi explain the action of Mr Kachikwu as a sign of “crass irresponsibility, gross indiscipline, disingenuous scandalisation’’ and an attempt to blackmail the party’s executives to do his bidding.
He stressed that such attitude was improper for someone who wants to be the president of Nigeria.
