Bagos Says PDP Crisis Has Reached Breaking Point, Hints Imminent Political Realignment in Plateau
A former Managing Director of the Nigerian Ports Authority, Aminu Dabo, has dumped the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Dabo, who was chairman of the APC caucus in Dambatta Local Government Area of Kano State, resigned from the party in a letter dated October 7, 2026.
The letter was addressed to the chairman of Dambatta Gabas Ward.
He said he took the decision after careful consideration of personal reasons and his future plans.
According to him, he has already submitted the resignation letter to the appropriate party officials in Dambatta for further action.
Dabo thanked the leadership of the APC for giving him the opportunity to serve and for the confidence reposed in him.
“I remain grateful for the cordial relationship I enjoyed and appreciative of the experience gained during my time of service,” he said.
Recall that Dabo was a governorship aspirant in Kano State and previously served as the Commissioner for Land in the state.
The Special Adviser to the President on Political and Other Matters, Alhaji Ibrahim Masari, has assured President Bola Tinubu that the combined votes of opposition parties, including the African Democratic Congress, ADC, the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, and other parties, would be insignificant compared with those of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the 2027 presidential election.
During the inauguration of the APC Presidential Campaign Council on Wednesday, Masari pledged to mobilise massive votes for the President and urged members of the council to emphasise grassroots engagement, party discipline and practical outcomes.
“The combined votes secured by opposition parties would not be commensurate with what the council intends to deliver,” Masari told Tinubu.
He described the assignment as a solemn responsibility and encouraged members to extend the campaign to polling stations, electoral wards, local government areas and communities across the country.
“Stop talking to yourselves and start talking to the people,” he declared, warning against excessive meetings, inflated electoral claims and promises unsupported by verifiable grassroots results.
Masari said performance would be evaluated based on actual implementation, emphasising that political influence must translate into concrete electoral achievements.
He further urged members to eliminate internal conflicts, inflammatory rhetoric and personal disputes. He also called on the Director-General of the council, Senator Abdulaziz Yari, to maintain cohesion, operational coordination and uniform communication across the council.
According to Masari, the campaign must articulate the administration’s strategic policies and commitments in fiscal restructuring, educational advancement, healthcare provision and infrastructure development while addressing the concerns of Nigerians with evidence-based information.
Masari also underscored the importance of principled democratic engagement, urging political organisations to comply with electoral regulations, refute false information and pursue substantive, policy-focused campaigns.
He appealed to Nigerians to critically evaluate campaign claims and participate constructively in the electoral process.
