National Legal Adviser of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Abdulkarim Kana, says that only the National Working Committee, NWC, can suspend any member of the party, as no other organ 

has the right to do so. 
Kana, spoke on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Monday, while reacting to the recent controversial ‘suspension’ of the National Chairman of the party, Abdullahi Ganduje, by different factional excos of his ward.
However, Kana noted that before such action could be carried out, all procedures must have been followed, according to the constitution of the party.
“All those procedures must be exhausted for such penalties to be imposed but as a penalty pending completion of an investigation, no organ of the APC has the power to suspend any member pending investigation except the national working committee,” he said.
Asked about such suspension happening in the party in the past, the legal adviser said that was before the APC’s constitution was amended in 2023.
Kana described those that suspended Ganduje as “random individuals," pointing out that they were non members of the APC.  
The two factions of the Ganduje ward had suspended the membership of their national chairman, Ganduje, over alleged involvement in the misappropriation of public funds and other criminal issues, during his tenure as governor of Kano State.
However, the State Working Committee of the APC in Kano swiftly nullified the suspension and took disciplinary actions against the ward executives.
A Federal High Court in Kano also issued an ex parte order temporarily halting the implementation of the suspension until the case was heard and determined.
A Kano State High Court judge who earlier upheld Ganduje’s suspention also vacated the order suspending ex-Kano governor as the National Chairman of the APC.
