The Kaduna State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has suspended the Women Leader, Maryam Suleiman, for defending former Governor Nasir El-Rufai over the alleged recent controversy on the state’s huge debt.
The suspension of the Kaduna APC women leader was contained in a letter co-signed by the Badarawa/Malali Ward Chairman and Secretary, Ali Maishago and Zakka Bassahuwa, respectively, on Sunday, March 31, 2024.
The statement read: “The Badarawa/Malali Ward APC Executive Committee after due deliberations and careful examinations on the viral video clip released on 30th March 2024 via social networks: Facebook, WhatsApp, and Tiktok, which is against the constitution of our dear party, APC as stated in article 21.2 (v).

“In view of the above, below are the gross misconducts where the subsequent suspension relied upon:
“Defamation of the character of His Excellency, the Executive Governor of Kaduna State, Malam Uba Sani.
“Unauthorised publicity of the party’s dispute that discredited the personality of the Executive Governor of Kaduna State.”
It would be recalled that Governor Uba Sani, on Friday, lamented the high debt profile he inherited from his predecessor, El-Rufai.
Sani, who spoke at a town hall meeting in Kaduna, said his administration inherited a debt burden of $587 million, N85 billion, and 115 contractual liabilities from the immediate past administration.
