The African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Jigawa State suspends Hon. Aliyu Muhammad Tukur Gantsa, a party chieftain and NWC member, for 12 months. The party says the suspension follows allegations that he engaged in anti-party activities and violated party discipline.

Outlets report the decision is communicated through a statement signed by the ADC’s Polling Unit Chairman for Buji Local Government Area, Ahmad Garba. The suspension bars Gantsa from party activities for the period, citing conduct deemed inconsistent with party rules.

While the reports broadly agree on the suspension’s length, the person involved, and the stated grounds, they differ slightly in emphasis. One outlet describes him specifically as an NWC member; others refer to him as a chieftain. None of the accounts provide detailed particulars of the alleged actions beyond the general claim of anti-party conduct.
