APC chairman, Abdullahi Adamu
A group has expressed reservations over the endorsement of former Nasarawa State governor, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, for the office of national chairman of the All Progressives Congress.
The group under the platform, APC Muslim Integrity Forum (APCMIF) said the purported endorsement of Senator representing Nasarawa West by President Muhammadu Buhari would not augur well for the stability of the party ahead next general elections.
Addressing newsmen in Abuja, the forum’s national coordinator Honourable Abubakar Yusuf, urged President Buhari to review the endorsement.
He said: “We appeal to President Muhammadu Buhari to critically examine the person of Abdullahi Adamu and his past activities, his commitment, age and physical fitness and his role as the arrowhead of former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s third agenda. A man who does not believe in democratic principles can not be a good party administrator especially a crisis-ridden Party like ours in an election year.

“We call on President Muhammadu Buhari and all leaders of our party to withdraw the purported endorsement of Sen Abdullahi Adamu, considering his age and the requirements of the office of the National Chairman with the view of replacing him if at all such alleged endorsement exists.”
The group further urged President Buhari to consider other aspirants from the North Central states where the office of national chairman has been zoned to.
“The fact is, Abdullahi Adamu is not the only Muslim from North Central Nigeria, we have people like Senator Umar Tanko Al-Makura, Senator Sani Musa, Saliu Mustapha among others that can do the job. The age of Sen. Adamu should also be considered. Senator Adamu lacks the physical energy and charisma to move round the country and seat for long hours as it is required of a National Chairman of a governing party in a country like Nigeria.”
