APC Suspends Its National Legal Adviser, Dr. Muiz Banire, Demands His Sacking

The National Legal Adviser of the ruling All
Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Muiz Banire,
has been suspended by his ward, the
Ilasamaja Ward C of the APC in the Mushin
Local Government Area of Lagos State on
Thursday.

According to a report by Punch newspaper,
Banire’s suspension was upheld by the
executive committee of the APC in the
council.
The ward executive cited various alleged
anti-party activities allegedly perpetrated by
the legal adviser as one of the reasons for
his suspension.
In a statement by the Acting Secretary of the
ward, Taofeek Ajani-Balogun, the ward
explained the decision to suspend Banire
from the party was reached during the
ward meeting held to review the last council
poll.
The statement partly read, “After a critical
assessment of individual activities and the
performance of the party during the last
election, members of the party in Ward C,
Ilasamaja Mushin, unanimously voted for
immediate suspension of Muiz Banire from
participating in party activities in the ward
and recommended his removal from office
as National Legal Adviser.”
Also in a statement, the Acting Chairman of
the APC in Mushin LGA, Sola Osobajo, said,
“After receiving the minutes of the Ward C
meeting, and having carefully considered
the decision of Ward C leadership, we
decided to adopt the resolution for further
necessary action at the state and national
levels. The party leadership in Mushin further
recommended to the state chapter the
expulsion of Banire from the party.”
However, Banire in a statement he signed
on Thursday dismissed the suspension.
He said, “If these crooked elements were
members of the party, they would know that
by the constitution of the APC, it is the
National Executive Committee that can
remove a national officer of the party
responsible for the 36 states of the
federation and the Federal Capital Territory.
“I urge the members of the public to ignore
these undesirable and mischievous elements
together with their antics.”
