By Emmanuel Adeleke

The national chairman of  All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Abdullahi Adamu,  the deputy national chairman (North), Abubakar Kyari, have formally stepped down from the Senate.

They both tendered  their resignation in separate letters read by the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, during Tuesday’s plenary.

Adamu and Kyari said they resigned because of their emergence as national chairman and deputy national Chairman (North) of the ruling APC.

Until his resignation, Adamu was  a third-term Senator in the Senate.

Adamu in his letter lauded  leadership of the Senate President, saying:

“I must commend you for a charismatic leadership in which you treat all Senators equally irrespective of political difference.”
