APC probes ex-Gombe governor over alleged anti-party activities

The All Progressives Congress (APC) Gombe chapter has established a 5-man committee to investigate alleged anti-party activities against Sen. Danjuma Goje during the 2023 general election.

This was said on Wednesday in Kashere in the state’s Akko Local Government Area when Mr. Tanimu Abdullahi, the chairman of the APC Kashere Ward, inaugurated the committee.

According to Abdullahi, the inauguration followed the party’s constitution, which called for fairness and justice.

He claimed that Goje and his supporters were suspected of assisting a state opposition party during the recently concluded election.

“During the just concluded election, it is unfortunate that Danjuma Goje and his supporters engaged in anti-party and we are all witnesses.

“He gave directive to some party members to vote a different party and he went ahead to even give money to that course.

“He is supposed to be an example having benefitted from the party for a long time but he went against our party; this is unfortunate,” Abdullahi said.

He said that the committee was given 14-days to submit its recommendations to the party at the ward level for necessary action.

‘’The committee is expected to uncover all those involved and would apply the provisions of the party constitution based on its findings,’’ he said.

The ward chairman said that the inauguration of the committee was also in the spirit of ensuring due process, fairness and justice in line with the party’s constitution. (NAN)
