According to the letter, the allegations arose from campaign materials bearing the ADC logo, the slogan SABON TAFIYA, SABON SALO, and the names and photographs of Atiku and Bunu.
The party said its disciplinary process began at the Hausari Ward level before the matter was referred to the leadership of the Maiduguri Metropolitan Council (MMC) for investigation.
