Breaking :: Saraki’s Chief of Staff dumps APC
The Chief of Staff to Senate President Bukola Saraki, Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, on Monday dumped the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Mr Ahmed who was appointed by Mr Saraki in 2017 said his decision has nothing to do with the Senate President.
He described his decision to leave APC as a difficult one.
He said he took the decision after due consultation with members of his Akida faction of APC in Kaduna.
The Akida faction also has a senator, Shehu Sani, as member. Mr Sani has also threatened to leave the APC.
Mr Baba-Ahmed, while addressing journalists in Kaduna on Monday, said he has sent a letter of withdrawal from APC to the party chairman in his ward.
He explained that he was not leaving APC to join another party but believes the ruling party has under performed.
“This statement is to inform the public of my resignation from APC. I have sent a formal letter to this effect to chairman of my ward.
“This has been a very difficult decision, to leave a party I helped to form and made my humble contributions to put in power.
