Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Ayekooto Akindele, says the party\u2019s Deputy National Chairman (North), Bukar Dalori, will replace Abdullahi Ganduje.<\/p>\n

Ganduje on Friday resigned his position as the National Chairman of the ruling party.<\/p>\n

Although the circumstances surrounding his resignation remain unclear, some sources have attributed it to health reasons.<\/p>\n

While Nigerians await an official announcement from the party\u2019s National Working Committee regarding the resignation and the choice of replacement, Ayekooto stated that Dalori will assume the office.<\/p>\n

In a post on his official Facebook page, the APC chieftain wrote, \u201cActing National Chairman of the APC, Ali Bukar Dalori.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bashir Ahmad, former media aide to ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, earlier stated that one of the national vice chairmen of the party would succeed Ganduje.<\/p>\n

According to him, the successor will function in an acting capacity pending the election of a substantive chairman at the national convention scheduled for December 2025.<\/p>\n
