Former House of Representatives member and the Director General of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Support Group Management Council, ABATSGMC, Abdulmumin Jibrin has quit the governing All Progressives Congress (APC).
The decision was contained in posts on his verified social media accounts, stating that, he will disclose his next political move within 24 hours.
His verified Facebook account reads; “I have done my best for APC. Its time to move on.
“I will announce my new political party within the next 24 hours insha Allah. I will make a formal statement in due course,” he said, signing off with his name.
Jibrin, a former Chairman of House of Representatives Committee on Appropration has been at the fore front campaign for Tinubu’s presidential ambition, with much emphasis on the need to rotate the presidential seat to the South where Tinubu hails from.
Some said he may have been angered by the plethora of northerners vying for the presidency under the governing APC against his perception.
Jubrin who is currently serving as a director with the Federal Housing Authority, lost his re-election bid in 2020.
