Senator Abdullahi Adamu, the national Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has resigned from office, according to multiple reports Sunday night.
Adamu, former governor of Nasarawa state, was said to have resigned to save himself from being removed from office, the Western Post, close to the APC leadership reported
According to the paper, Adamu was forced to resign over man issues which included his non-support for president Tinubu during campaign.
For the past two weeks, elements within the party have been calling for his resignation threatening to remove him at the next National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting this week if he failed to resign.
He was forced to bow out after Imo State Governor and Chairman of All Progressive Congress Forum Home Uzodimma told him that, if he didn't resign, they will remove him at next Congress.
Those who are calling for Adamu’s resignation accused him of working against the President during the party’s presidential primaries, publicly supporting former Senate President, Ahmed Lawan and failing to fully back Tinubu even after securing the party’s ticket.
Adamu was also accused of mismanaging the party's fund.
