SENATOR Abdullahi Adamu was notably absent as members of the All Progressives Congress (APC)’s National Working Committee (NWC) met in Abuja on Monday.
News Point Nigeria had reported that, Adamu tendered his resignation last night.
Credible sources confirmed to this newspaper that Adamu, who emerged as the national chairman at the party’s national convention held in March 2022, has sent his resignation letter to the Presidential Villa, Abuja ahead of the return of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu from the African Union (AU) meeting in Kenya.
One of the sources said Adamu, a former governor of Nasarawa State, sent the resignation letter to the Chief of Staff of the President, Femi Gbajabiamila, around 4pm on Sunday.
“He has resigned. The resignation letter signed by him has been sent to the villa. The letter was addressed to President Tinubu. But since the president is away in Kenya for the AU meeting, the letter was sent to his chief of staff,” the source said
The APC NWC meeting, held at the party secretariat in Abuja today, was presided over by the APC Deputy National Chairman (North), Abubakar Kyari.
Some sources within the party stated that Senator Adamu is said to have resigned along with the National Secretary of the party, Senator Iyiola Omisore.
