Former Lawmaker Kiri Resigns from APC in Jigawa State

Kiri, a former member of the House of Representatives and pioneer chairman of the Progress Congress APC in Jigawa State, has officially resigned from the party. His resignation was communicated through a letter addressed to the APC ward chairman of Kiri Ward, Malam Saliku Mujtapha, dated March 30, 2026.

Kiri's decision to withdraw from party activities reflects a personal resolution and has begun to stir reactions within the political circles of Jigawa State, particularly concerning the influence he had in building the APC structure in the state. Despite his exit, Kiri expressed appreciation for the opportunities he had to serve and contribute to the development of Kiri.

The resignation letter did not indicate whether Kiri plans to join another political party, leaving his future political intentions uncertain. This move raises questions about whether it signals a complete political retirement or a temporary disengagement from active politics.
