Kabiru Marafa, the former Senator representing Zamfara Central, has officially resigned from the All Progressives Congress (APC), accusing the ruling party of betrayal and causing division among its members. Marafa made the announcement in a video statement addressed to his supporters, highlighting deep-rooted issues within the APC, particularly in Zamfara State.
Marafa revealed that his decision came after several days of consultations with his constituents and political associates. He expressed profound disappointment with the APC's governance and internal management over the past two years. According to Marafa, the party has failed its members at both the state and national levels, highlighting a sense of betrayal and neglect.
A major point of contention within Zamfara's APC is the leadership struggle between two factions led by Bala Buni and former Governor Matawalle, which has left the party seriously divided. Since Bala Buni assumed control of party affairs from Matawalle, Marafa noted that not a single party meeting has taken place for over two years and six months, signaling a stagnant and dysfunctional party structure.
The former senator lamented the failure of party leaders to reconcile their differences, which has exacerbated the disunity in APC and affected its political cohesion in the region. Marafa’s departure from the party sends a strong signal about the ongoing challenges within APC and may influence political dynamics in Zamfara and beyond.
This resignation underscores growing dissatisfaction within the APC ranks and raises questions about the party's future stability and unity in Nigeria's political landscape.
