Arewa Group Suspends Chairman Osuman Over Comments On 2027 Presidency

The Arewa Consultative Forum has suspended its National Chairman, Mamman Mike Osuman, for making what it describes as an authorised statement concerning the 2027 presidency.

Osuman was quoted as saying during the ACF National Executive Council meeting on Wednesday, that the North would support a northern candidate for the presidency in the 2027 general elections.

Reacting in a statement on Thursday, the Forum, through its Chairman, Board of Trustees, Bashir Dalhatu and Secretary General, Murtala Aliyu, said Osuman made the statements without consulting or discussing with other leaders and members of the ACF, adding that statements made only reflected his personal opinion.

ACF, therefore, announced the suspension of Osuman as Chairman with immediate effect and also constituted a Committee to investigate the infractions.

“ACF rejects Mr. Mamman Mike Osuman’s statements in their entirety.

“For this reason, the leadership of the ACF’s Board of Trustees (BOT) and that of its NEC has decided to place Mamman Mike Osuman on suspension with immediate effect,” the statement read.
