Congress: Bauchi APC Members Reject New Chairman, Gives Reason
  • Bauchi APC members reject the new chairman, accuse minister of imposition.
  • Babayo Misau emerges Bauchi APC Chairman.

Ekohotblog reports that shortly after Alhaji Babayo Aliyu Misau emerged as the consensus chairman of the Bauchi State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Saturday’s state congress of the opposition party in the state, some members of the party in the State, on Sunday, kicked against his emergence as the state chairman of the party.

The disgruntled members, speaking at a news conference at the Press Centre of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Bauchi State Council, accused the Minister of Education, Malam Adamu Adamu, who is the party’s leader in the state, of forcing the new state chairman on members.

While addressing the conference, coalition convener Malam Nasiru Cigari, along with other members, said that the new chairman just recently joined APC from the Social Democratic Party (SDP), and that he had not been with their party for long before his rise as chairman.

According to him, Malam Adamu unilaterally appointed Misau as the party’s new chairman without contacting members first.

Cigari said that instead of consulting members and delegates, the minister just transmitted Misau’s name from Abuja as the new chairman of the party in the state on Saturday night.

This, he added, was reason for anxiety among party members, since it was capable of upsetting the party’s relative calm.

“Adamu Adamu’s attitude towards the party is something to worry about. This single act is capable of truncating the relative peace enjoyed in the party,” Cigari submitted.

He, therefore, on behalf of the coalition, called on the national headquarters of the party to cancel the state congress and order for a fresh one.
