The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Jigawa State has suspended a serving federal lawmaker representing Hadejia, Kafin Hausa and Auyo, Hon. Ibrahim Usman, and six party officials over alleged anti-party activities.
The suspension was contained in a letter signed by the state APC Chairman, Ahmad Garba MK, and obtained by DAILY POST.
According to the letter, the disciplinary action followed allegations of conduct considered detrimental to the unity, stability, and interests of the ruling party.
Those affected by the suspension include the federal lawmaker, alongside Aisha Adamu Auyo (Kande), the State Deputy Women Leader; Yargabi Babannan Auyo, Auyo Ward Women Leader; Musa Idris Zabarau, Auyo Ward Chairman; Ibrahim Ayama, Auyo Local Government Vice Chairman; Saje Hadiyau; and the Local Government Financial Secretary, Sani Abdullahi Hadiyau.
The party stated that the State Executive Committee (SEC) received formal complaints from what it described as “concerned and loyal party members” regarding the alleged involvement of the suspended individuals in anti-party activities during an event held on May 26, 2026, in Auyo Town, Auyo Local Government Area of Jigawa State.
According to the APC, the accused persons allegedly engaged in actions capable of bringing the party into disrepute, undermining its authority, promoting division among members, and acting in ways prejudicial to the interests of the party.
The SEC noted that, if proven, the alleged actions would constitute violations of Article 21.2(ii), (vi), (vii), and (viii) of the APC Constitution, which prohibit disloyalty, anti-party activities, conduct likely to embarrass the party, and actions capable of causing discord and disaffection among members.
As part of the suspension, the affected individuals have been barred from representing themselves as officers, agents, or representatives of the party in any capacity.
They are also prohibited from attending or participating in party meetings, activities, or functions in any official capacity, exercising powers or privileges attached to their offices, and taking any action capable of influencing or interfering with the disciplinary process.
The party chairman, however, assured the suspended members that they would be given a fair hearing before the APC Jigawa State Disciplinary Committee.
“They will be afforded a fair hearing and an opportunity to defend themselves in accordance with the party’s constitution and the principles of natural justice,” the statement said.
