“He is accordingly, advised to appear before the State Disciplinary Committee of the party for further interrogations within the next one week.
“The party wishes to state emphatically that it will deal decisively with any incursion by the ruling party. the APC, into its ranks.”
Reacting to his suspension, Adams denied the allegation, saying some elements in the party were witch-hunting him due to the forthcoming bye-election in Akoko North-East/Akoko North-West Federal Constituency in Ondo.
He stated that the suspension will not stand as he and his supporters are aware of what those who suspended him are trying to do.
