Abdullahi Adamu, the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), is said to have resigned.
According to the Daily Trust, Mr Adamu quit on Sunday night.
He also informed the newspaper that he would not discuss his alleged resignation until President Bola Tinubu returned from Kenya, where he is attending the Fifth Mid-Year Coordination Meeting.
“I won’t talk about the issue because the president is away,” Mr Adamu was quoted as saying.
According to reputable sources, the APC chairman presented his letter of resignation to Femi Gbajabiamila, the president’s chief of staff, on Monday morning.
When contacted, APC spokesperson Felix Morka did not confirm nor deny the report.
“I cannot confirm anything at the moment,” Mr Morka told PREMIUM TIMES via phone on Monday morning.
This newspaper was unable to contact Mr Gbajabiamila since calls to his mobile phone were not answered.
Other APC sources contacted by PREMIUM TIMES were unable to corroborate Mr Adamu’s resignation.
Mr Adamu was a senator from Nasarawa West before becoming the ruling party’s national chairman last year.
He also served as the Nasarawa State governor between 1999 and 2007.
