A faction of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Adamawa State has suspended former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
Chairman of the ADC faction in the state, Raji Sulaiman Zumo, announced the suspension today.
Also suspended is the former Secretary to Government of the Federation (SGF), Babachir Lawal.
Recall that a faction of ADC led by Nafiu Bala Gombe is laying claim to the position of national Chairman of the party.
The development prompted the decision of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to derecognize the leadership of the ADC under former Senate President David Mark,with the latter subsequently heading for the courts to settle the matter.
