APC Urged To Avert Pantami’s Exit From Party

An All Progressives Congress (APC) youth leader in Bauchi State, Khamis Musa Darazo, has appealed to the Presidency and the APC national leadership to intervene over the likely exit of former minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Prof. Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami, from the party.
Darazo described the potential exit of the former minister as a major political loss and setback for the APC, both in the North and across Nigeria.

“The attention of the Presidency and the National Leadership of our great party, the APC, is urgently needed to address the growing concern surrounding our respected brother and statesman, Professor Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami,” Darazo said.

Speaking with journalists in Bauchi on Sunday, Darazo noted that as a founding supporter and loyal member of the APC, he is deeply worried by reports suggesting that Pantami is on his way out of the party.

According to him, Pantami is “More than a politician, he is an intellectual, reformer, and bridge-builder who has consistently used knowledge, faith, and integrity to promote good governance and inspire young Nigerians.”

He cautioned that losing Pantami would not only diminish the party’s intellectual and moral strength but also send a discouraging signal to millions of Nigerian youths who view him as a symbol of integrity and visionary leadership.

Darazo called on President Bola Tinubu, the APC national chairman, and other key stakeholders to engage Pantami and address any grievances or misunderstandings that may have led to his current position.

“The APC strength has always been rooted in unity, inclusion, and visionary leadership. Every loyal member is important, especially someone like Professor Pantami, whose influence and moral standing transcend party lines,” he emphasised.

Reaffirming his loyalty to the Renewed Hope Agenda, Darazo urged the party leadership to act swiftly and decisively, adding “The APC cannot afford to lose such an invaluable pillar at this defining stage of our political journey.”
