Abdullahi Ganduje, the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Chairman, suddenly resigned today, citing health concerns.
The former Kano State governor shocked party members by leaving office immediately, ending his short but turbulent leadership.
In his resignation letter, Ganduje explained he needed to focus on personal health issues. However, whispers within the party suggest deeper political tensions forced his hand.
His brief tenure, which began in August 2023, was marked by constant infighting and unresolved disputes.
While officials publicly attribute his exit to medical reasons, insiders reveal growing discontent among key stakeholders.
Critics argue his leadership style deepened existing divisions rather than uniting the party.
Supporters, however, insist he made tough decisions necessary for progress.
The APC must now quickly appoint a new chairman to stabilize the party ahead of future elections.
Emergency meetings are expected as leaders scramble to prevent further disarray.
Analysts warn that unresolved conflicts could weaken the party’s position if not addressed swiftly.
Ganduje’s political career spans decades, including eight years as Kano governor before taking the APC helm.
His abrupt departure raises questions about the ruling party’s internal cohesion.
Observers wonder whether this signals a broader shake-up in Nigeria’s political landscape.
As speculation swirls, one thing is clear: the APC faces a critical test in choosing its next leader.
Will they prioritize unity or risk further division?
The coming days will reveal whether the party can turn this sudden change into an opportunity for renewal.
For now, Ganduje’s exit leaves more questions than answers—and a party racing against time to steady itself.
The true reasons behind his resignation may yet surface as political maneuvering intensifies behind the scenes.
