Senator Garba Musa Maidoki, who represents the Kebbi South Senatorial District, has announced his departure from the All Progressives Congress (APC) just days before the party’s senatorial primary scheduled for Monday. In a resignation letter dated May 14, 2026, addressed to the APC Ward Chairman of Rafin Zuru Ward in Zuru Local Government Area, Kebbi State, the lawmaker cited unresolved internal conflicts within the party as the driving force behind his decision. He noted that these ongoing issues have created significant hurdles for his political ambitions. Maidoki expressed gratitude to the APC for the opportunity to serve under its platform but emphasized the need to move on due to the party’s unstable environment. Currently, he serves as Chairman of the Senate Committee on Legislative Compliance and Vice Chairman of the Senate Committee on Information and National Orientation. His exit has intensified speculation about political realignments in Kebbi State as the 2027 general elections approach.
