Senator Kabiru Marafa has declared his intentions to go court in order to sack the Governor Mai Mala Buni-led Caretaker Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee, CECPC， which he described as an illegal contraption, unknown to law.

The development is in reaction to the crisis  over the  Congress of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Zamfara state chapter.

Sen Marafa during a media parley   Sunday in Abuja, maintained that Gov. Buni cannot operate as a governor and also superintend the party.

Marafa who represented Zamfara Central in the Senate for eight years said ： ”Mai Mala Buni’s CECPC is an illegal committee. It cannot conduct anything. Whatever it does is a nullity and it cannot stand in this country. We are going to challenge him on that in court and I don’t care what anyone will say. Buni looked for my trouble and I will give him ten times of that.

”The Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is very clear that you cannot hold an executive position and hold party position at the same time. Our APC constitution is also very clear in Article 2 which is the supremacy of the constitution.

“In S. 17(4), it says no officer of the party shall hold any executive position in government concurrently with the party position. He is an Executive Governor.

“He cannot be the Chairman of APC and if he can, let the courts tell us. I am going to court, I am going to challenge that.

“And whatever he did from the time he was appointed to this time will be questioned. We have one APC.

“Remove this man so that he doesn’t bring everybody down. I am on a salvage mission”, he affirmed
