Jibrilla Bindow, a former governor of Adamawa state, has
resigned his membership from the All Progressives Congress (APC).
In a letter dated January 20 and addressed to the APC
chairman in the Kolere ward of Mubi north LGA of Adamawa, Bindow cited the lack
of “genuine reconciliation” of aggrieved members in the party after the 2019
general election and the 2022 primary elections.
The former governor lost the party’s governorship ticket to
Aisha Binani, a senator representing Adamawa central.
Bindow said his decision to leave the APC was not an easy
one.
“I wish to formally
notify you of my decision to resign as a member of the All Progressive Congress
party (APC) effective from 20th January 2023,” he said in the letter copied to
Abdullahi Adamu, national chairman of the party.
“This decision is not an easy one but after deep prayers and
wide consultations with my family, stakeholders, and faithful followers across
the state and country at large, I have decided to resign my membership.
“The decision is also a result of a lack of genuine
reconciliation of aggrieved stakeholders within the party in Adamawa state
since the unfortunate events of the 2019 general elections and the 2022 primary
elections.
“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 the cause of
building a harmonious Adamawa that will enshrine unity in our diversity towards
our collective development as a people.”
Ahmadu Fintiri, incumbent governor of Adamawa, and Binani
are among the candidates in the race for the government house in the state.
