NOVEMBER 27, 2017<\/p>\n
Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, has sent his resignation letter \u00a0to the ruling All Progressives Congress APC.<\/p>\n
Though the letter was dated October 18, 2017, Atiku said his decision to quit the ruling party was not about him but about the future of the country as a democratic entity.<\/p>\n
Atiku addressed the letter to APC party\u2019s ward chairman in his Jada 1 Ward, Jada Local Government, Adamawa State.<\/p>\n
In his letter, Atiku Abubakar stated;<\/p>\n
\u201cI am unable to reconcile myself with the dismal performance of the party in government, especially in relation to the continued polarization of our people along ethnic and religious lines, which is threatening our unity more than any other time in the recent past and the unbeatable hardship that our people are currently undergoing\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI wish to inform you of my decision to resign my membership of the All Progressives Congress APC in this ward with effect from the date of this letter.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI am resigning from a party we formed and worked so hard, with fellow compatriots across the country, to place in government. I had hope that the APC government will make improvements to the lives of our people and the continued existence and development of Nigeria as one indivisible nation. This hope has now been dashed.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs I said in 2006, it is the struggle for democracy, constitutionalism and service to my country and my people that are driving my choice. Let me emphasize again that this is not about me. We have to have a country before people can aspire to lead it,\u201d<\/p>\n
“While wishing you well, let me express the hope that in the near future, a substantial number of you will join forces with us to once again defeat impunity and restore vision and purpose to the politics of our great country. Please accept the assurances of my highest regard.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
