Mr Babachir Lawal, a former secretary to the Government of the Federation,has officially resigned from the All Progressives Congress.
Lawal, who served under ex-President Muhammadu Buhari during his first term, announced his decision in a letter dated June 29, 2025, and addressed to the chairman of APC in Bangshika Ward, Hong Local Government Area of Adamawa State.
The letter partly read, ”I write to formally notify you of my resignation from the All Progressive Congress.
“In due course, I will make public my current political affiliations where I plan to join other compatriots to work towards making Nigeria a better living place for all its citizens.
“This resignation takes immediate effect.
“Please, remain blessed and extend my warm regards to other members of your party.”
Lawal is believed to be part of a growing political coalition seeking to unseat President Bola Tinubu and end APC’s dominance in the 2027 general elections.
The coalition led by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, ex-Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai, and former Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi, has recently adopted the African Democratic Congress as its platform ahead of the polls.
