Story from, Najibullahi Adamu
A political group known as ‘Coalition of APC supporters’ in Bauchi state has accused the minister of education Malam Adamu Adamu of imposing the new state chairman of the party in the just-concluded congress of the party.
The group while addressing a press conference at the Press Centre of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Bauchi State Council, accused the Minister of Education, Malam Adamu Adamu, who is the leader of the party in the state, of imposing the new state chairman on members.
Convener of the coalition, Malam Nasiru Cigari, who was in company with other members while addressing the conference, alleged that the new chairman only recently joined APC from Social Democratic Party (SDP), adding that he has not stayed for long with their party before his emergence as chairman.

He further alleged that the minister did not come to Bauchi to consult party stakeholders and delegates during the congress but only sent in the name of Babayo from Abuja Saturday night as the new chairman of the party in the state.
“Adamu Adamu’s attitude towards the party is something to worry about. This single act is capable of truncating the relative peace enjoyed in the party”. He said.
The coalition, therefore, appealed to the national headquarters of the party to cancel the state congress and order for fresh exercise.
