Governor Abdullahi Ganduje, in an earlier statement by his media aide, had directed all political appointees seeking elective positions in the 2023 general elections to resign on or before April 18.
Mr Ganduje’s directive complied with section 84 (12) of the amended Electoral Act, which requires political appointees seeking elective positions to resign before participating in primaries.
