"Sirajo Dada really worked against the success of the APC in the LGA during the 2023 General elections. He was caught going round campaigning the candidates of the APC."
" Dada went against the stance of the APC, he campaigned for the candidate of the PRP for the House of Representatives seat. He was accosted by the leadership of the APC but he glaringly refused to listen."
"Having refused to be remorseful about what he did, the EXCO met and came to this decision. He is hereby expelled from being a member of the APC in Gamawa LGA," Saleh-Sufa said.
He added that "we have served him with the letter to that effect and copied the State EXCO through the State Chairman."
