Tuesday, October 14, 2025 - A House of Representatives hopeful for the Ado, Okpokwu, and Ogbadibo Federal Constituency in Benue State, Inalegwu Ejembi Adaje, has resigned his membership of the All Progressives Congress, AP, accusing the party of derailing from its founding democratic principles.
In a resignation letter dated October 13, 2025, and
addressed to the Ward Chairman of the APC, Ingle/Okpale Ward, Edumoga Ehaje,
Okpokwu Local Government Area of Benue State, Adaje said his decision came
after “careful reflection and wide consultations with key stakeholders,
associates, and respected leaders.”
According to him, his exit was motivated by the need to
remain true to his political ideals and commitment to fairness, justice, and
accountability.
“This decision comes after careful reflection and wide
consultations with key stakeholders, associates, and respected leaders. It is
driven by my commitment to uphold the principles of justice, accountability,
and true democratic values, principles which I no longer find aligned with the
current direction and internal workings of the party,” Adaje wrote.
He expressed appreciation to the APC for the opportunities
and privileges he enjoyed while a member but maintained that he could not
continue to operate under a structure that had, in his words, “lost touch with
its original values.”
“I sincerely appreciate the privilege of association and the
opportunities for service afforded me during my time as a member of the APC,”
he added, thanking party leaders and colleagues “for their support and
cooperation.”
