I Resigned Because Of Ganduje’s Emergence As APC Chairman – National Legal Adviser

Ahmed El-Marzuq has explained that he resigned his position as the National Legal Adviser of the All Progressives Congress (APC) because of the emergence of Dr Abdullahi Ganduje as national chairman of the party.

In a statement on Wednesday by his Special Adviser, AbdulHalim Adamu, El-Marzuq attributed his resignation to the emergence of Ganduje; and former Senate spokesman, Ajibola Basiru; as APC National Chairman and National Secretary respectively.

Explaining the move, Adamu said:

“In light of the recent developments within our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), with the emergence of His Excellency Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje and Senator Ajibola Basiru as National Chairman and National Secretary and the reconfiguration of party offices for national cohesion and adequate regional representation, the National Legal Adviser found it pertinent that he resigns his position within the party to allow for a smooth reconfiguration of the party’s leadership.”

El-Marzuq thanked President Bola Tinubu and other party officials for the “opportunity” to serve following his decision to resign as the APC national legal adviser.

The APC has been battling an internal crisis for weeks. Mid-July, two members of the party’s NWC resigned. Senator Abdullahi Adamu and Senator Iyiola Omisore resigned as the party’s National Chairman and National Secretary respectively.
