The National Secretary of the Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator John James Akpanudoedehe has resigned.
It was gathered that Akpanudoedehe had left the party’s national secretariat at Blantyre Street, Wuse 2, Abuja, with all his belongings.
The former lawmaker reportedly tendered his resignation letter to the acting chairman of the APC, Governor Abubakar Sani-Bello.
Reports has it that his resignation may be connected to the sack of Governor Mai Mala Buni of Yobe State and subsequent takeover of party leadership by Governor Sani-Bello.
Recall that Senator Akpanudoedehe had on Monday said that Buni was not sacked by President Muhammadu Buhari, insisting that the Yobe State Governor was absent from a meeting at the party’s national headquarters due to medical reasons.
Akpanudoedehe stated that the Yobe governor is in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, on a medical trip.
But sources and different news platform had reported that Buhari ordered the removal and replacement of Buni before he jetted out of the country on Sunday.
It was gathered that the president ordered Buni’s removal after getting wind of a plan to scuttle the upcoming APC national convention by some persons allegedly closed to the Yobe governor.
