The National Executive Committee, NEC, of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has approved the expulsion of former National Vice Chairman, South-South, Ntufam Hilliard Eta, for failing to withdraw the court case instituted against the caretaker committee.
Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, disclosed this to the State House correspondents at the end of a virtual emergency meeting of the party’s NEC at the Aso Rock Presidential Villa, Abuja.
El-Rufai confirmed that the Committee also dissolved all states, zonal, and national party structures.
The Committee added six months to the tenure of the party’s caretaker extraordinary convention planning committee led by Yobe Governor, Mai Buni.
The party had in late November scheduled the meeting to review its position and deliberate on its next line of action as it concerns its national leadership.
The meeting was attended by President Muhammadu Buhari; Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, and other party chieftains.
It was gathered that Buni led other members of the party’s NEC, including Buhari, into the meeting.
It was also gathered that the Senate President, Senator Ahmad Lawan; Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila were in attendance, physically.
Also, governors of the party, led by the Chairman of the Progressive Governors’ Forum (PGF) and governor of Kebbi State, Atiku Bagudu, were all physically in attendance.
