Mohammed Abubakar Damaturu.

A former senatorial aspirant in Yobe  State has left the All Progressives Congress (APC) over issues suspected to border on a leadership tussle in the party in the state.

In a letter dated September 24, 2025, Bello notified the Ward Chairman of Gwange Ward, Damaturu, of his decision to withdraw his membership from the party, effective immediately.

He cited considerable reflection on his personal values and the direction of the party as the reason for his resignation.

After much deliberation, he concluded that it was in his best interest and that of his community to step away from the party.

Despite his decision to leave, Bello expressed gratitude for the opportunities he had while being part of the APC. He appreciated the relationships he built and the experiences he gained, stating that they would always hold a special place in his heart.

Bello’s resignation has sparked speculation about the reasons behind his decision. Some have attributed it to disagreements with the party’s leadership or policies, while others believe it may be a sign of larger issues within the party.

The APC has yet to react officially to Bello’s resignation. However, sources close to the party indicate that his departure may not come as a surprise, given the growing discontent among some members.

Bello’s plans and potential affiliation with other political parties remain unclear. His decision to resign has left many wondering what direction he will take next.
