Sourced news brief · Source report: 2026-10-04
Eight Zamfara State Assembly members have announced their resignation from the APC, according to Legit.ng. The lawmakers cited insecurity and alleged that their salaries and allowances had remained unpaid for 32 months.
The report also carries the party’s response: Zamfara APC publicity secretary Ibrahim Birnin-Magaji said formal resignation letters had not reached the party and that it learned of the announcements through social media. Keeping both accounts together is important because the announced departure and its formal processing are separate matters. The allegations about security and unpaid entitlements are attributed to the lawmakers. This brief does not independently verify those claims or announce their next political affiliation.
