The All Progressives Congress (APC) executive loyal to the Kano State governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, has been sacked by an FCT High Court presided over by Justice Hamza Muazu.

The presiding judge granted all of the reliefs sought by Senator Ibrahim Shekarau’s faction, including a declaration that Ganduje’s APC Exco/group did not hold ward and local government congresses, in his ruling on Tuesday.

Muntaka Bala Sulyman, a member of the APC with 17, 980 members, is the plaintiff in the case, while the defendants are the APC, Mai- Mala Buni, Caretaker Chairman; Sen. John Akpanudoedehe, National Secretary; and the Independent National Electoral Commission, as the fourth defendant.
