BREAKING: APC national body reverses suspension of Austine Agada

The national leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has nullified the purported suspension of the Benue state APC Chairman, Augustine Agada. Agada was reportedly suspended by party executives in Ehaje Ward 1, Owukpa, Ogbadibo Local Government Area of the state.

Felix Morka, the National Publicity Secretary of the party, issued a statement on Wednesday, asserting that Agada retains his position as the party chairman in the state. Morka clarified that the suspension has been set aside pending further review and decision by the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) on the matter.

In the statement, Morka said, “The attention of the National Leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has been drawn to media reports of the purported suspension of the party’s Chairman in Benue State, Mr Augustine Agada, by Party executives in his Ehaje Ward 1, Owukpa, Ogbadibo Local Government Area of the state.

“The party has directed that the said suspension and all related actions in the matter be, and are hereby, set aside pending further review and decision of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) on the matter.

“Therefore, Mr Augustine Agada remains a bonafide member and the Chairman of the Benue State Chapter of our party.”
