Kaduna: Wave of resignations from govt raises fresh issues for 2027
The wave of resignations from the Kaduna State government has raised fresh issues surrounding the 2027 center controversy. Professor Muhammad Sani Bello, also known as Mainan Zazzau, resigned from the State Executive Council on July 29, 2025, sparking speculation and tension within the inner circle of the government.
Bello, who played a key role in Governor Uba Sani's 2023 campaign, is seen as a significant departure that could signal potential fractures within the political camp. Despite concerns about the impact of elite defections on the party's unity, the recent state elections showed that the APC still maintains strong grassroots support.
The resignation of several key officials, including Bello, has caused a ripple effect within the APC, but Governor Sani's ability to mobilize grassroots support and maintain voter loyalty remains evident. The rapid series of exits may have implications for the governor's political future as the 2027 elections approach.
