The factional Chairman of the All Progressive Congress in Taraba State, James Amadu, on Friday, called on the security operatives in the state to urgently effect the arrest of Ibrahim Tukur for impersonation as the chairman of the party in the state.
“By the provision of the APC constitution, Barr. Elsudi ceased to function as Chairman on February 10th and has no legal right to suspend or expel any member from the party.
“For the avoidance of doubt, Chief David Sabo Kente remains a member of the APC in Taraba and our Senator-elect Hon. David Jimkuta remains a legitimate member of our great party in Taraba State and the leader of the party in waiting, in line with the provisions of the constitution of the party. “We hereby, call on the security operatives in the state to urgently effect the arrest of Barr. Elsudi for impersonation. We also call on the national leadership of the party to expediently call Elsudi to order before he creates irreparable confusion in the party.”
Our correspondent reports that the Elsuldi-led faction of the party in the state had on Monday expelled Chief David Sabo Kente and recommended the suspension of the senator-elect to the national secretariat.All rights reserved.
