Former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Abdullahi Adamu, has announced his decision to retire from active politics.
Confessing that he started developing allergies for political activities, Adamu stated this on Saturday in Lafia at the presentation and launching of a book titled, ‘Progressive governance: Showcasing the achievements of His Excellency, Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State 2019 – 2023’, which was written by Abdullahi Tanimu.
The former APC national chairman commended the author for his efforts in writing out all the achievements of the governor since he was elected into office.
He congratulated the incumbent governor for consolidating the achievements of his predecessors and improving on them.
He also urged the residents of the state to continue to support and pray for the governor and his cabinet members in order for them to deliver the dividends of democracy to the people.
He said, “I am not only a retiree but I am out of politics. I’m beginning to develop little allergies for political activities now and political speeches.
“So, forgive me, I will not make any political statements beyond asking for further and more support for the governor of the state.
“He needs all your prayers and goodwill to be able to succeed. So, to encourage the author for his good work, I will launch 20 copies of the book for one million naira.”
