Mr. Ahmed Wadada, a former House of Representatives member, has resigned his membership in the All Progressives Congress (APC).
This is contained in a letter signed by Wadada and addressed to the APC Ward Chairman, Tudun Kofa, Keffi Local Government Area of Nasarawa State.
In the letter dated June 1, 2022, Wadada said his decision was due to the controversy that trailed the recently conducted Nasarawa West Senatorial District primary election which he withdrew from, despite being a frontrunner.
He said the controversy had to do with alleged alterations to the party’s original delegates list for the election, which action he described as illegal and undemocratic.
“I Hon. Ahmed Wadada Aliyu with registration number NW/KEF/06/01001, write to inform you of my decision to resign as a member of the All Progressive Congress (APC).
“The decision is borne out of the shameful display of illegality, impunity and undemocratic decisions of the party at the just concluded Nasarawa West Senatorial District primary after due consultations with my political associates and constituents.
“While assuring you of my utmost respect, please accept the assurances of my esteemed regards.”
