ADC Youth Leader Sultan Bello Resigns Over Campaign Snub

Sultan Bello, serving as the National Youth Leader of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), resigned from the party on September 24, 2026. His resignation was prompted by his exclusion from a campaign council list, despite his active contributions to the party.

In his resignation letter, addressed to the Chairman of Ja'oji Gyadi Gyadi Arewa Ward in Tarauni local government area, Bello expressed gratitude for the opportunity to serve the party over the past four years, from 2022 to 2026. The letter took effect immediately.

Following his resignation, Bello announced the decision on his X handle, which drew significant attention, particularly as it coincided with Rt. Hon. Amaechi serving as a running mate on a 2027 presidential ticket. This context made Bello's exit a notable statement regarding the campaign structure.

His announcement elicited mixed reactions on social media, with some sympathizing with him while others criticized his decision.
