Alongside the governor, other APC members, Caretaker/ Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee, CECPC were also fired by the court until the determination of a substantive suit before the court.

Recall that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in August urged the court to sack Mai Mala Buni for taking up another executive position as the caretaker chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

In the suit filed at the Federal High Court in Abuja, the PDP argued that combining the governor’s office with another executive position is a constitutional violation.

    Femi Fani Kayode’s decision to dump the PDP and declare for the APC is a political decision that only him and the other brains behind such decision could explain. What I can say however is to wish him well and pray that APC as a political party by be lucky to have a wonderful and dependable ally.
    You are welcome to the ruling party FFK.
