Obi Reacts To Ganduje’s Resignation As APC National Chairman

The presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 general elections, Peter Obi, has commended the immediate resignation of the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, describing it as an “honourable and timely decision that sets a precedent for other leaders facing health challenges.”

In a statement released on Friday via X, Obi said he had read reports of Ganduje’s resignation, which was attributed to declining health.

While details remain unclear, Ganduje has stepped down and vacated his office at the national secretariat in Abuja.

Reacting to the development, Obi praised the former Kano State governor for “prioritising his health above all else.”

He further stated, “With his health reportedly in decline, it is both wise and honourable to step aside, knowing that he may no longer be able to render the level of service required by the party, the people, and the nation.”

He added that Ganduje’s resignation should serve as a wake-up call to other leaders whose health may be impairing their ability to perform optimally in office.

By this exemplary action, Dr. Ganduje has thrown a challenge to other leaders who, due to health-related issues, are no longer able to deliver optimally. I sincerely hope they take a cue from him,” he said.

Obi noted that Nigeria’s current challenges demand leaders who are not only competent but also physically and mentally agile.

He stressed that the country “can no longer afford the burden of medical tourism, long holidays, or absenteeism caused by age-related ailmen4ts,”as “These things are taking a serious toll on our development.”

Obi concluded by praying for Ganduje’s health and peace in retirement, saying, “May God Almighty grant Dr. Ganduje a peaceful and fulfilling retirement.”
