Salihu Lukman, vice-chairman of the All Progressives
Congress (APC) in the north-west, has sued Abdullahi Adamu and Iyiola Omisore,
the party’s national chairman and secretary.
Lukman is praying the federal high court in Abuja to compel
Adamu and Omisore to convene a meeting of the national executive committee
(NEC) and present the party’s financial report.
The vice-chairman had recently called on Adamu to give
account of all the funds accrued to the party from the sale of forms in the
build-up to the general election.
In the suit marked FHC/ABJ/CS/573/2023 and seen by TheCable
on Thursday, Lukman asked the court to determine whether the defendants are not
obligated to call for a NEC meeting to present quarterly financial income and
expenditure of the APC to members of the NEC.
He thereafter asked the court for; “An order
mandating/directing the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd defendants to immediately call for or
cause to be called and held the meeting of the NEC of the APC for purpose of
presenting proposed guidelines and regulations governing the conduct of
elections to the party offices at all levels and procedure for selecting party
candidates for elective offices, including the selection and zoning of
leadership of the national assembly to the members of the national executive
committee.
“An order mandating/directing the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd
defendants to immediately call for or cause to be called and held the meeting
of the national executive committee of the APC for purpose of presenting the
financial report on income and expenditure of the APC from the date of the last
NEC Meeting which was 20 April 2022 to the last NWC Meeting which held on 17th
April 2023 to the members of the national executive committee.”
