The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has dismissed reports claiming that the Senator representing the Federal Capital Territory, Ireti Kingibe, has been suspended from the party.
In a statement on Thursday, the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, described the reports circulating in some quarters as false and misleading.
“The African Democratic Congress is unaware of any suspension of Senator Ireti Kingibe, the distinguished Senator representing the Federal Capital Territory,” Abdullahi said.
He explained that the party operates through established constitutional procedures when handling issues involving its members.
“As a law-abiding political party, the ADC has clear constitutional channels and procedures for addressing any allegations involving its members. Such matters are handled through established internal mechanisms, not through press statements,” he added.
The party urged the public and media organisations to disregard the reports suggesting that disciplinary action had been taken against the FCT senator.
According to Abdullahi, the claims did not originate from the party’s recognised structures and should not be relied upon as credible information.
The clarification follows widespread speculation in some media outlets that the senator had been suspended by the party, a claim the ADC insists is unfounded.
