APC Expels ‘Sex Toy’ Senator, Abbo for Anti-Party Activities
Senator Elisha Abbo, representing Adamawa North, has been expelled by the executive members of his local government chapter of the All Progressives Congress for allegedly engaging in anti-party activities and tampering with the process of internal democracy of the party.
The controversial senator, who has remained one of the vociferous dissenting voices against the ruling party’s Muslim-Muslim ticket, was axed for criticising the APC presidential flag bearer, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, on a national television.
This was disclosed in his expulsion letter, which was signed on Friday by 13 members of the state executives and made available to Saturday PUNCH.
Rising from its meeting on Friday, the executive of Mubi North Local Government Area stated that they had reviewed among other things the report of the disciplinary committee before taking the decision to expel him. Punch
