Nigeria, April 10 -- The Supreme Court has dismissed a motion brought by former executive committee members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kwara State.

The officials, loyalists of Senate President Bukola Saraki, are challenging their sack by the APC headquarters.

The executive committee, led by Ishola Balogun-Fulani, asked the Supreme Court to nullify its sack by the national leadership of the APC.

The National Working Committee of the APC sacked the state executive committee for alleged anti-party activities and replaced it with a caretaker committee headed by Bashir Bolarinwa.

The officials were also prevented from participating in the 2019 general elections in the state on the APC platform.
