He said, “This APC is funny, as we speak, the Chairman and his loyalists have suspended the Deputy National Chairman (North), the whole North, the Chairman, National Vice Chairman (North-West) which is the largest geographical zone with seven states has been suspended, he is no longer attending National Working Committee meetings. 

“The National Secretary of the party who is from the north, from Yobe, has left to become governor of Yobe state as we speak, there is no firm decision to his replacement.

“For more than one year or so, a very substantial part of the country is not represented in the decision making.”
