Surprise Move: APC Installs Ali Dalori As Acting Chairman Amid Party Shakeup

The APC’s spokesperson, Felix Morka, has announced that Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje has stepped down from his role as National Chairman.

APC’s National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, confirmed on Friday night that Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje has resigned as the party’s National Chairman, effective immediately. The move, according to Morka, allows Ganduje to focus on urgent personal matters.

Ganduje’s resignation letter, sent to the National Working Committee via National Secretary Senator Ajibola Basiru, expressed gratitude to President Tinubu for the chance to lead the APC.

In response to the vacancy, Ali Dalori, Deputy National Chairman (North), has been appointed to act as Chairman until the December NEC meeting.

Ganduje, who took over from Senator Abdullahi Adamu in August 2023, is credited with strengthening party unity, promoting democracy, and securing key political gains, including strategic defections and legal victories.

Morka praised Ganduje’s leadership and reaffirmed the APC’s commitment to President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda. He also wished Ganduje continued success and good health in future endeavors.
