The National Working Committee, NWC, of the Social Democratic Party, SDP, has formally notified the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, of the suspension of its National Chairman, Alhaji Shehu Musa Gabam, along with two members of the NWC, over allegations of conspiracy, fraud, misappropriation of party funds and gross breach of the party’s constitution.
In a letter dated June 25 and addressed to the INEC chairman, the SDP said the decision to suspend the trio was reached at a scheduled NWC meeting held on Tuesday, June 24, which INEC had been invited to observe, and for which security arrangements were made following intelligence reports of a planned disruption.
