Suleiman Adamu, the caretaker chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Yola South local government of Adamawa State, has been suspended after he was caught in leaked audio wishing the death of President Muhammadu Buhari.
Reacting to the audio clip, APC said a seven-man disciplinary committee has been set up by the State Working Committee (SWC) to investigate the issues in the audio clip and make appropriate recommendations for action.
A statement signed by the Publicity Secretary of the party in Adamawa, Mohammed Abdullahi, said the party has resolved to suspend Adamu pending the outcome of the investigation by the seven-man disciplinary committee.
“In the light of the above, we had an emergency SWC meeting today (10/08/2021) where the audio clip was replayed, digested and deliberated upon.
“At the end it was observed that some of the words/remarks in the audio clip were most unfortunate and require further investigation.
“Consequently, a 7 man disciplinary committee has been set up by the SWC to investigate the issues in the audio clip and make appropriate recommendations for action.
“In order to ensure unhindered investigation and fair hearing, the SWC has resolved that the APC Caretaker Chairman, Yola South Local Government (Alh. Suleiman Adamu) who is a member of the State Executive Committee be suspended pending the outcome of the investigation by the 7 man disciplinary committee.
“Meanwhile, the APC Local Government Vice Chairman (Alh. Adamu Majekano) is mandated to take over as Acting Chairman Yola South.
