A group of North Central stakeholders in the All Progressives Congress, APC, have stormed the national secretariat of the party in Abuja, demanding the resignation of the National Chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje.
While addressing newsmen in Abuja on Thursday, the protesters said their demand followed Ganduje 's recent suspension by a faction of his ward executives and the alleged bribery allegation levelled against him by the Kano State government.
However, the protesters under the aegis of Concerned North Central APC Stakeholders decried Ganduje's continued stay in office, noting that it was a clear violation of the zoning principle in the party. Leader of the demonstrators, Mohammed Mahmud Saba, disclosed that, unlike the 37 APC state chairmen, his people in the North Central have passed a vote of no confidence on the national chairman and equally demanded his immediate resignation.
