On Thursday, demonstrators converged at the national headquarters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Abuja, demanding the annulment of all actions undertaken by the embattled national chairman, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje.
Carrying banners and placards bearing various messages, the protesters also called for the immediate resignation of the party’s national chairman. In a petition addressed to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the demonstrators expressed concerns that Ganduje’s continued tenure posed a threat to the upcoming primary election in Ondo State.
Signed by Co-conveners Denesi Momoh, Abdulkadir Shuaibu, and Adeyeye Olugbenga, the petition urged for the nullification of all actions taken since Ganduje’s suspension and advocated for the authority empowered to act as the National Chairman during his suspension to assume office. The goal was to safeguard the integrity of the Ondo primary election and prevent any potential invalidation of its outcomes.
This demonstration follows earlier remarks by the APC national legal adviser, Prof Abdulkareem Kana, who labeled the ex parte order suspending Ganduje as unenforceable due to alleged fraudulent procurement.
