Politics: Adamawa Ex-Gov resigns from APC

Jibrilla Bindow, the former governor of Adamawa State, has resigned from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Bindow said his decision was taken after “deep prayers and wide consultations with family members, stakeholders and faithful followers within and outside Adamawa State.”

“The unfortunate event of the 2019 general election and the 2022 governorship primary among many reasons remains the main crux of why I’m resigning from the APC, he said.

“Lack of genuine reconciliation with aggrieved stakeholders within the party in Adamawa state since the last primary makes the APC to no longer be a comfortable home.

“While thanking you and the party, I wish to also inform you that my faithful supporters will be joining me across the state in leaving the party so as to champion a cause of building a harmonious Adamawa State that will enshrine unity in our diversity toward a collective development as a people.”

The former governor said his resignation followed an unresolved crisis in the party in the state.
