Ex-AGF Aondoakaa dumps APC for PDP
A former Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Michael Aondoakaa, has resigned his membership of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
He was seen at the national convention of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) held in Abuja on Sunday, signalling a possible political realignment.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the former minister said his resignation, which took effect from March 28, followed careful reflection and wide consultations with his family, political associates, and supporters.
He said: “While I remain grateful for the opportunity to serve and contribute to the growth of the party at various levels during my membership, prevailing circumstances have made it necessary for me to take this step in the overall interest of my people and democratic values.
“I wish to express my profound appreciation to President Bola Tinubu for the visionary leadership he has continued to provide for our nation, as well as for the support and attention which Benue State has enjoyed under his administration.
“I assure him of my continued loyalty to his Renewed Hope Agenda.
“Furthermore, I deeply appreciate the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Senator George Akume, for the quality leadership he has provided to the APC family in Benue State.
“I acknowledge his role in shaping the political landscape of our dear state and assure him of my enduring respect.
“Finally, I wish to sincerely appreciate the leadership and members of the party in Ushongo Local Government Area, the entire Benue State and beyond for the cooperation and support extended to me over the years.
“The relationships built and experiences gathered remain invaluable,” he stated.
