The presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu has sacked Senator Aisha Ahmed Dahiru, popularly called Binani as the presidential council’s campaign coordinator for Adamawa state.
The relief of Binani of the assignment came after a media report that the executive committee of the APC in the state has rejected the female senator as coordinator; as well as members of the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) led by her in the state.
Reacting, the party’s presidential candidate, Tinubu, replaced Binani with a former Adamawa state deputy governor, Martin Babale.
A letter to that effect was signed by the Plateau state governor, Simon Lalong, who doubles as the Director-General of the Tinubu/Shettima Presidential Campaign Council. The letter reads in part, “Appointment to serve as Adamawa state Interim Coordinator for Tinubu/Shetima Presidential Campaign Council.
“By way of this letter, I’m pleased to formally convey your appointment as Adamawa state Coordinator of Tinubu/Shettima Presidential Campaign Council.
“This appointment is fitting and appropriate; given your impressive political achievement and the exemplary leadership you have demonstrated as a major pillar of the party.
“Also, we are confident that your wealth of experience will impact greatly on our mission to drive an effective message-driven campaign.”
