The Kaduna State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has affirmed the indefinite suspension of its Women Leader, Maryam Suleiman, who criticised Governor UBA Sani for disclosing huge debt inherited from the previous administration.
In a statement on Wednesday, the state publicity secretary, Tanko Wusono, said: “This decision reinforces the party’s commitment to upholding discipline and integrity within its ranks.
“APC Kaduna reiterates its steadfast support for the Uba Sani administration and urges the governor to remain focused amidst distractions from detractors,” the statement added.
The party also declared its total support and loyalty to Governor Uba Sani.
According to the party, the recent disclosure of the debt profile of the state was commendable and showed the governor’s commitment to transparent and inclusive governance.
Mr Wusono added that Mr Sani’s open and inclusive leadership style is evident in the diverse representation at the State of Kaduna Town Hall held last Saturday.
“The event provided a platform for discussing the state’s challenges, progress, and plans, reflecting the administration’s dedication to citizen engagement.”
The APC further applauded the governor’s recent initiatives aimed at alleviating economic hardship and fostering progress in the state.
“These include grants to 7,500 SMEs, support for 5,000 farmers, cash transfers, and food distribution to vulnerable households.
“Governor Uba Sani’s update on security affairs during the Town Hall, including the establishment of more Forward Operation Bases, instills hope for a safer future.”
