A new acting national chairman, Leonard Nzenwa, was immediately sworn-in.

The committee also announced that Sowore’s suspension and that of other members of his executive would last for six months except overturned by a National Convention of the party

But in a swift  reaction, Sowore. announced the supension of Leonard Ezenwa  for anti party activities

Sowore In a statement issued  on Monday said  “It has come to the notice of the office of the Chairman of the African Action Congress that a group of suspended members, induced by financial reasons and anti-progressive politics, gathered in Abuja today, 13th May, 2019, and purportedly held a NEC meeting.

“These members, led by Leonard Nzenwa, former national secretary, who was suspended for financial impropriety and anti-party activities, have demonstrated by their actions that they have never been, and have never shared, the core beliefs that those of us in the African Action Congress hold.

“Leonard Nzenwa is hereby expelled from the party, and the misguided individuals who participated in the Abuja meeting are suspended from the party until investigations reveal the extent of their involvement
