The All Progressives Congress (APC) has warned that recent remarks credited to Minister of State for Housing and Urban Development, Yusuf Ata, on internal matters of the party in Kano could mislead members and encourage disunity across the state chapter.
The party accused Ata of making repeated “uncomplimentary and derogatory” remarks and warned that continued conduct of this nature could lead to sanctions.
The APC in Kano said this in a letter signed by Chairman, Abdullahi Abbas to warn the Minister over the alleged unguarded utterances.
In the letter, the party alerted the Minister that recent remarks credited to him the media on internal matters and aspirants could mislead members and encourage disunity across the state chapter.
The Kano APC Chairman further noted that only authorised spokespersons may address issues being spoken on by Ata.
He noted that Ata holds no communications role within the APC.
The party acknowledged the right of Ata to support any aspirant but reminded him that his cabinet position requires him to strengthen unity within the party.
