Adamu Garba Rejoins APC, Give Reasons | READ DETAILS

Garba had declared interest to contest the APC presidential primary held in June 2022. He had solicited for donation to support his ambition which he got over N83 million fund.

Instead of pursuing his presidential ambition. Garba announced his withdrawal from the party citing the expensive cost of form placed at N100 million.

He had in May 2022, joined the Young Progressives Party (YPP), where he picked presidential form.

Taking to his social media handle to announce his rejoining the APC on Tuesday, July 12, 2022, Adamu Garba wrote;

"yes, I am fully back to APC. I could do more harm to my country, Nigeria if I did not support a combination of a great strategist and a great tactician on a single ticket. It is BAT/Hashim that should take over all polling units in Nigeria come 2023".

His resignation had read;

LETTER OF RESIGNATION FROM MY MEMBERSHIP OF THE ALL PROGRESSIVES PARTY
I write to formally notify you of my intention to resign my membership in the All Progressive Congress (APC).

My resignation was due to the fact that APC as a party has lost its moral bearing and has taken to some exclusionary practices which are against standard democratic tenets.

More importantly, as a young man, who believes in the future of Nigeria and had high hopes in APC before now, I cannot continue to retain membership of a party that favors money beyond competency, vested interest beyond common interest, chronic elitism beyond public good, politics of exclusion beyond inclusion.

I do not, in all honesty, sincerely and with consciousness believe that any young man in Nigeria has a future or model worthy of emulation for the benefit of the Nigeria in APC, I believe the party has drifted so much from the original beliefs of its foundation to a something more cynical, undemocratic institution.

I further believed that the party has failed in its promises to deliver public good over the years, betrayed the public trust, and has turned out to be doing much worse than what we fought so hard to dethrone in the then PDP government. Worst is the issue of internal security that the party paid more attention to propaganda media statements that listening to the yearning of the people.

Moreover, the party seems to encourage its enemies than its friends, favors its adversaries than its loyalist, hates the prospect of the new generation of leaders beyond just youth leadership seats, and has no credible, practicable plans for the future of Nigeria as we get into the heart of the turbulence of the 21st century.

Attached to this letter is a copy of my APC membership slip.
As I chart a new path for what I believe is best for Nigeria, I pray that APC will, over time recover its lost soul.

Thank you
Adamu Garba II
