The executive council of the All Progressive Congress (APC) Kukadu Gundari ward in Misau LGA of Bauchi state has expelled the state Chairman of the party, Babayo Aliyu Misau for alleged anti-party activities.
Addressing a press conference Tuesday in Bauchi, the ward secretary Aliyu Hassan Adamu said that the state chairman of the party committed series of anti-party activities including abdicating his responsibility especially how he boycotted campaign rallies of governorship candidate and other house of assembly candidates in the state.
Adamu explained that the chairman showed lackadaisical attitude towards the governorship election despite holding the highest position in the party, adding, “One disturbing act of the chairman is how he displayed public his ballot papers without voting for the APC governorship candidate Air Marshal Sadique Baba Abubakar on the Election Day.”
“Another ugly trend perpetuated by the chairman was how he engaged some scrupulous opposition elements to fight against the APC candidates by preventing people to vote for the party during the election which has negatively sabotaged the party especially during the just concluded governorship election in the state,” Adamu said.

When contacted in a telephone interview, the embattled APC chairman Babayo Aliyu Misau said that the ward executives don’t have the right under the party Constitution to sack him because there are laid down procedures which required them to present their resolution to the party leadership at LGA and to the state level and finally to the national leadership which are empowered to make the pronouncement, adding, “We will meet in a court of competent jurisdiction.”
