2023: APC Suspends Governor’s Uncle Indefinitely

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has suspended the uncle of Niger State Governor, Sani Bello Mustapha also known as Sani Basket.

Naija News understands Mustapha was suspended indefinitely from the party over alleged anti-party activities.

His suspension was contained in a letter dated 23rd February 2023 which was signed by the APC Ward Chairman in Kontagora, Alhaji Hamza Majidadi, and the Secretary, Alhaji Abdullahi Kira.

The letter accused the Governor’s uncle of specifically campaigning against the APC which is tantamount to non-adherence to the party’s constitution.

The letter reads: “We strongly write to convey the resolution of our great-party APC Central Ward Kontagora for the suspension of Honourable Sani Bello Mustapha (Basket) indefinitely.

“Our collective resolution to suspend the aforesaid member from the party is due to his anti-party activities i.e campaigning against his party which is capable of tarnishing the good image of the party.

“Your utterances in the landmark F.M. station dated 21st February 2023 is a clear testimony that the person in question has not been adhering to the party’s constitution. With this letter of suspension, the person in question (Hon. Sani Bello Mustapha) is hereby suspended indefinitely from the party.”

The letter was copied to the Niger APC Chairman the Kontagora Local Government, the APC Zonal Chairman, and all APC Stakeholders of the Central Ward, Kontagora.
