Senator Abdullahi Adamu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Chairman, has finally resigned from the position, Senator Abubakar Kyari, the National Deputy Chairman (North), has confirmed.
Kyari told newsmen at the end of the National Working Committee (NWC) meeting of the party in Abuja on Monday that the National Secretary, Senator Iyiola Omisore also resigned.

He said that the meeting was attended by 17 members of the NWC with only Mr Felix Morka, the party’s National Publicity Secretary and the National Women Leader, Dr Betta Edu, absent with permission.
“It is now incumbent on my humble self, Sen. Abubakar Kyari as the Deputy National Chairman (North) to assume the office of the Acting National Chairman of the APC.
“And subsequently also, the Deputy National Secretary, Barrister Festus Fuanter, will now assume the office of the Acting National Secretary of the APC,” he said.
