At least 31 members of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Akoko South West Local Government Area of Ondo State has been Suspend.

In a letter addressed to the state chairman of the party, Mr Ade Adetimehin, the party stated that its decision was based on the report of a committee set up to look into the matter.

In a letter signed by the chairman and a leader of the party, Chief Sehinde Mishe and Mr Victor Olabimtan, respectively, the offence of the affected members was not stated but it was gathered that the suspension of the affected members was not unconnected with the anti-party roles they allegedly played in the last general elections.

A part of the letter read, “Having gone through the list and consider the report of the fact-finding committee, the leaders across the 15 wards unanimously resolved that the following members of the party stand suspended from the party.”

According to the letter, the affected members are: Yaya Adelakun, Alh Abubakar Alonge, Mr Femi Ayoko, Segun Olukoju, Olugbegba Omole, Sunday Ajulu, Oteruku Sunday, Felix Ajakaye , Adejoro Paul, Mr Ayelure and Opeyemi Igbede.

“It is a family affair and we would look into it and address the problem,” Adetimehin promised.

Mallam Abba Abubakar, a son of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has formally received his membership card of the All Progressives Congress (APC) following his registration at the ward level in Adamawa State.

The Adamawa State chapter of the APC has confirmed Abba Abubakar’s successful integration into the party, marking his official defection from previous political affiliations.

This development comes after reports of his formal defection to the ruling party, with reports indicating that the membership registration process was completed at his ward.

Abba Abubakar, also referred to as Abba Atiku in some reports, has publicly expressed strong support for President Bola Tinubu, declaring that no party or individual is positioned to defeat him in the 2027 presidential election.

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has described his son’s decision as a personal choice, emphasizing democratic freedoms. In statements attributed to him, Atiku noted that in a democracy, individuals including family members are entitled to make independent political decisions without coercion.

The move has sparked discussions across Nigeria’s political landscape, particularly given Atiku’s own recent association with the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and the presence of another son, Adamu, serving as Commissioner for Works and Energy Development in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)-led Adamawa State government.
