JUST IN : APC suspends house of Reps member for anti-party activities
The All Progressive Congress, Zamfara State Chapter, has suspended a member of the National Assembly representing Birnin Magaji /KauraNamoda, Hon Aminu Sani Jaji, indefinitely.
Idris explained that the suspension of the lawmaker became necessary following a discovery by the party of his political misconduct which included anti-party activities that led to the failure of the party in the last general elections in the state.
Amongst other misconducts charged against Jaji was his refusal to respect invitations to the APC activities at the ward and local government level, creating factions in the party aimed at weakening its strength and popularity.
According to Idris, the state headquarters of the APC received a letter from Birnin Magaji local government headquarters of the APC which emanated from the ward level seeking observation and approval for the suspension of Jaji, which compelled the party to write the national headquarters of the APC for further actions.

“The State Executive Committee of the APC, Zamfara state Chapter held an emergency meeting at the State Party Secretariat, Gusau on the 17th May 2024, where Hon. Jaji’s suspension matter was tabled to the members during which a report of an already constituted state fact-
finding committee on Anti-Party activities established in the aftermath of the 2023 Zamfara State Governorship election was presented to the state’s committee for deliberations by members.
“Sir, it may interest you to know that, the findings of that committee as contained in its report dated 15th July 2023 equally fingered Hon. Aminu Sani Jaji and his direct involvement in anti-party activities and recommended for his immediate suspension from the party pending the review and deliberations by the State Disciplinary Committee and subsequent ratification by the State Executive Committee.
“The 7-Man State Disciplinary Committee also recommended his suspension from the party having failed to appear before the committee despite several invitations given to him, now the State Executive Committee has reviewed the earlier findings made by the State Disciplinary Committee and agreed with its recommendations and resolved to suspend him based on the findings”,
“Given the foregoing, the Zamfara State APC Executive Committee resolved and approved the suspension of Hon. Aminu Sani Jaji from the party based on the recommendations of the State Disciplinary Committee which was earlier made, coupled with his recent suspension by APC Birnin Magaji Ward Executive Committee and affirmed by APC Birnin magaji Local Government Executive Committee.”
