Bukar Dalori, the Deputy National Chairman (North) of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has assumed office as the acting National Chairman following the resignation of Abdullahi Ganduje. Ganduje’s departure took many by surprise, and details surrounding the resignation remain unclear.
Speculations suggest that Ganduje’s exit may be related to internal political shifts as the party prepares for the 2027 elections. Sources indicate that the ongoing discussions about the vice-presidential slot and its potential zoning to the North-West could be influencing factors in his resignation.
According to the APC Constitution, the Deputy National Chairman is empowered to act in the absence of the chairman, particularly when from the same zone. Dalori’s appointment comes as the party looks to fill the leadership vacancy, with former Nasarawa State Governor, Senator Tanko Al-Makura, emerging as a leading contender for the permanent position.
