JUST IN: APC Expels Ex-Gov Over Anti-Party Activities [PHOTO]

  • The APC has expelled Ex-Gov Goje from the party due to his involvement in anti-party activities.

EKO HOT BLOG reports that the All Progressive Congress (APC) Gombe chapter has expelled former Governor Senator Danjuma Goje from the party.

Goje, who serves as the representative of Gombe Central, was suspended as a result of his ongoing conflict with Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya and party officials.

It was later resolved and he was reinstated back to the party before he was able to obtain the party ticket to contest in the February general elections.

Announcing Goje’s expulsion after a closed- door meeting by the Kashere ward executives at Vocational Training School Kashere, the ward Chairman, Tanimu Abdullahi said it was in line with article 21 subsection (1), (2) and (3) of the party constitution as amended.

He said Goje was warned through a letter of his anti-party activities and replied but never desisted from doing so.

Abdullahi added that when Goje was invited by the five-man committee to investigate his activities during the last general elections, he refused to honour the invitation.

“During the election, some of Goje supporters were caught warning people not to vote for any other person in APC other than Senator Danjuma Goje.

“We warned them to stop their actions but they did not heed out warnings. Consequently, I on behalf of the entire members of Kashere ward hereby expelled Senator Danjuma Goje from the party,” he said.

Gombe APC chapter also suspended Senator Bulus K Amos and a House of Representatives member, Yunusa Ahmad Abubakar for similar offense.

A statement by Gombe Publicity Secretary, Mr Moses Kyari, said Amos, representing Gombe South, was suspended by the ward executives of the APC in Bambam Ward of Balanga Local Government.

According to him, Senator Amos was suspended over anti-party activities during the general elections.

He said the suspension was as a result of a petition from his ward, which caused a five-member committee to investigate and get to the roots of the matter.
