The African Democratic Congress (ADC),Federal Capital Territory chapter has suspended three executive members from Wuse Ward in Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC) for allegedly championing the controversial suspension of the senator representing FCT, Ireti Kingibe.
Also, the suspended executive members include the ward Chairman, Kanayo Chukwu, as well as Amanda Pam and Omale Suleiman.
Emmanuel Destiny, member of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC), while addressing newsmen and party members in Abuja on Sunday, March 15, 2026, said the purported suspension was in violation with the party’s constitution and laid-down procedures.
Destiny affirmed that the suspension lacked legitimacy as due process was not followed.
He said: “The party is supreme to every individual. Until now, the national wing of the party has not been served any letter of complaint or petition against Senator Kingibe.
“You cannot wake up and suspend a serving senator without putting your complaints or petition in writing.”
He added that the national leadership would not condone what he described as misconduct by the ward officials.
FCT Secretary of the party, John Hyginus, also criticised what he described as administrative lapses and disregard for the party’s constitution.
Moreover , the meeting, held at ADC’s FCT secretariat in Abuja, drew representatives from key organs of the party, including the FCT Chairman, Clement Ihigiato; the Secretary, John Hyginus; AMAC Chairman, Emeka Nnamani, Danlami Zuru and Jemila Ahmadu, among others.
