Crisis rocking the newly registered Advanced Peoples Democratic Alliance took a new turn in Abuja on Tuesday as some stakeholders claimed they had sacked the Alhaji Shittu Kabiru Muhammad-led Interim National Working Committee of the party.

In a swift reaction, Shittu and members of his committee also announced the suspension of Dr. Raymond Dokpesi, Chief Dan Nwanyanwu, and Mainasara Ilo from the newly-registered party.

The three men were allegedly suspended for unlawful gathering in the name of the party and violating the constitutional provision of the party for holding illegal National Executive Council meeting, where the decision to sack the interim NWC was taken.

Earlier in the morning, Dokpesi and some members of the party had gathered at what they called NEC meeting and pronounced the interim committee under Shittu leadership, sacked.

The stakeholders insisted that the tenure of the NWC members had expired since June 14 in line with the constitution of the party, and that the meeting of where the decision was taken complied with the party’s Contitution as well as the provisions of the Electoral Act as amended.
