The APC alleged that the conduct could embarrass and discredit the APC.

It added that Mr Sani-Giant’s actions violated APC’s constitution.

According to the statement, the party deemed his behaviour offensive and embarrassing.

“His suspension remains in place pending further investigation and possible disciplinary action, which could lead to expulsion if repeated,” APC said.
