The party further alleges that Suleiman orchestrated an attack on the political adviser to the governor, Manzo Maigari, by sending individuals to assail him.
The suspension, in line with Article 21, 2 (v) of the APC constitution, will remain in force until a thorough investigation into the allegations has been conducted.
In a widely circulated video delivered in the Hausa language, Suleiman expressed criticism towards Governor Sani's handling of the significant debt burden inherited from the previous administration of former governor Nasir El-Rufai. Governor Sani disclosed during a recent town hall meeting that his administration inherited a debt of $587 million, N85 billion, and 115 contractual liabilities from El-Rufai's tenure, leading to challenges in meeting salary obligations.
In response to the governor's remarks, Suleiman criticized him for maladministration, cautioning against shifting blame onto the previous administration.
The suspension of Suleiman underscores the internal tensions within the Kaduna State APC and highlights the complexities surrounding governance and accountability in the state. Stay tuned for further updates as the investigation progresses.
