Imam urged the Governor Mai Mala Buni-led APC National Caretaker Committee to reverse what he called “illegal inauguration of one Aliyu Saidu Galkogo as caretaker chairman of the party” in the state.
He advised the caretaker committee to comply with the December 8, 2020 resolution of the National Executive Committee (NEC) and be sworn in together with other congress elected officials as the caretaker committee in the state.
Imam also disclosed that all channels of communication had been exhausted to challenge “some of the unconstitutional breaches and automatic actions by party enemies”.
“If nothing is done, the party may collapse in the state and if that happens, the governor should be held responsible for killing it,” he said.
