The senator representing Gombe South, Bulus Amos, has denied allegations of indulging in anti-party activities during the recent elections in the state levelled against him by the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
A few days ago, the APC leadership in his Bambam ward of Balanga local government area of Gombe State addressed a press conference on the alleged activities by the senator in the just concluded elections and said they set up a committee to probe him.
However, in another press conference yesterday, the senator through his spokesman, Felix Manasseh, stated that he was a member of the APC campaign council and had delivered his local government to the party in the governorship and state assembly elections.
He said the ward party executive and the probe committee did not notify the senator in writing or call the allegations against him until this time but went to the press to ‘tarnish his good image’.
He said; “The senator was unfairly treated by the investigation committee for not granting him audience before going to the press with whatever allegations someone or groups of individuals have against him despite his position as the sitting senator and a party leader of Gombe south senatorial district.
“It is on record that Senator Amos served the party even at the national level where he held the position of the secretary finance committee in the presidential campaign council and he toured round the states for the campaign rallies including Gombe.”
