That Senator Gbenga Daniels has been suspensed by the All Progressives Congress (APC) is an established fact.

Be that as it may, APC (Ward 4) in Sagamu has explained to Nigerians why it suspended the lawmaker, insisting that his suspension remains in full effect..

The Ward Secretary, Hon. Oluwole Aduroja said: “This clarification is necessary after a statement issued by MJS Partners on behalf of Senator Daniel, reacting to a November 17 letter from the APC National Secretariat.”

“The Ward Executive Committee agreed to suspend Senator Daniel because he failed to appear before a panel set up to review petitions against him.”

“The petitions accused him of working against the party.”

“the problem started during the last general elections, when Senator Daniel acted in open defiance of the party and engaged in actions inimical to the interest of the APC and its candidates in Ogun State.”

“After the elections, the senator, attempted to obstruct and frustrate the course of justice during the Election Petition Tribunal sittings through actions and interventions that were directly hostile to the interest of the APC and its candidates.”

“On the position of the APC National Secretary, Senator Surajudeen Bashiru, in the November 17 letter, the APC Constitution allows Executive Committees at all levelsward, local government, state, zonal or national to discipline any member.”

“Article 21(5)(vii) gives the National Working Committee the power to suspend members, but does not override the powers of Executive Committees at other levels, and does not require them to seek approval from the NWC.”

“Any disciplinary action taken by an Executive Council, including suspension, is subject only to appeal as outlined in Article 21(4).”

“Nothing in the constitution makes their decision dependent on NWC review.”

“Ward 4 is committed to discipline, fairness and due process, the suspension of Senator Gbenga Daniel remains in full effect.”
