Sharada Ward in Kano Municipal Local Government Area has suspended Sha’aban Sharada, an ex-media assistant (broadcast media) to President Muhammadu Buhari, for alleged anti-party activities.

Mr Sharada, who is also the chairman, House of Representatives’ committee on national security and intelligence, was also accused of highhandedness.

The federal lawmaker was banned from all party affairs for one year, a statement signed by the APC ward chairman Abdullahi Sharada on Wednesday read.

The ward chairman explained that the suspension was sequel to a series of complaints about the lawmaker’s anti-party activities from party members across the state.

He said, “The party executives took the final decision of suspending Sha’aban Sharada, from the APC for the period of twelve months, that he will not interfere with all its affairs and activities at all levels.”

The suspended lawmaker has had running battles with Kano State Governor Abdullahi Ganduje and leading APC members in the state.
