ADC suspends Atiku, Babachir Lawal from Paris

A faction of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has announced the suspension of its national leader, Atiku Abubakar.

The faction’s chairman, Mohammed Raji Zumo, disclosed this during a press briefing in Yola on Monday evening.

He also confirmed the suspension of the party’s national vice chairman for the North-East, Babachir Lawal.

Zumo stated that the party’s disciplinary committee had recommended the expulsion of Atiku, Lawal, and a recently elected state chairman, Sadiq Dasin.

Dasin was reportedly elected during a controversial round of congresses conducted by an ADC committee in defiance of a court order halting the exercise.
