Members of the Kogi State Chapter of the African Action Congress (AAC) have passed a vote of no confidence in its state chairman, Ojodomo Musa Thomas.
The party members said the ousted chairman violated the party’s guidelines and constitution, engaged in dishonest practices, defrauded the party, carried out anti-party activities and monopolized the party amidst other negligent acts.
They also accused the chairman of impersonating the gubernatorial candidate of the party during the last Kogi election thereby limiting the chances of the party at the poll.
The meeting unanimously adopted Adekunle Orunja Gilbert to function in acting capacity until a new chairman is elected.
Twenty local government chairmen of the party, including the State Executive and other aggrieved party members expressed dismay and dissatisfaction with the conduct of the ousted chairman and thereafter passed the vote of no confidence.
According to the party, while all executive positions at the state level were resolved, other states’ positions were left pending until the party’s congress.
The event was witnessed by staff of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and officers of the Nigerian Police.
