Kaduna State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has suspended Hajiya Maryam Mai-Rusau, the State Women leader for allegedly defending former Gov. Nasir El-Rufai over a recent controversy on the state’s large debt.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!The Badarawa/Malali Ward APC Executive Committee said in a letter on Sunday that the suspension was necessary as she violated the party’s constitution, specifically article 21.2 (v).
The letter was co-signed by the Ward Chairman and Secretary, Ali Maishago and Zakka Bassahuwa, respectively and made available to newsmen in the state.
It partly read: “In view of the above, below are the gross misconducts where the subsequent suspension relied upon:
“Defamation of the character of His Excellency, the Executive Governor of Kaduna State, Malam Uba Sani.
“Unauthorized publicity of the party’s dispute that discredited the personality of the Executive Governor of Kaduna State.”
The suspension was based on her alleged defamation of the character of Governor Uba Sani and the unauthorized publicity of the party’s dispute with the former governor.
The Kaduna governor had earlier stated that he inherited a debt burden of $587 million, N85 billion, and 115 contractual liabilities from his predecessor.
