Youths boo Senator Adamu, threaten to leave party if lawmaker imposed as APC National Chairman

Aggrieved youths belonging to the All Progressives Congress (APC), booed Senator Abdullahi Adamu in public when the lawmaker was invited to speak as chairman of an occassion marking the 20th anniversary of the Emir of Azara, in Awe Local Government Area, Nasarawa State.
The incidence occurred on Saturday, shortly after Senator Adamu was invited to address the gathering, comprised top dignitaries that included the Nasarawa State Governor, Engr. Abdullahi A. Sule, as well as the Sultan of Sokoto, HRH Abubakar Saad III.
The youths booed at Senator Adamu when he came up to speak as chairman of the event.
As soon as Senator Adamu was invited to the podium to speak, the youths in their numbers, dared the security men on ground, to boo at the octogenarian.
They chanted their disagreement with Senator Adamu’s alleged interest to contest the position of the national chairman of the APC, even after stakeholders of the party in the state, adopted Senator Al-Makura to fly the party’s flag.
“You will be put to shame. It’s Al-Makura that we want as national chairman!,” the youths shouted as the booed at Senator Adamu.
Also in attendance at the event were prominent traditional rulers from across the country, including the Minister at the Ministry for Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godwill Akpabio, who was conferred with the title of the Dan Amanan Azara.
One of the youths who spoke to our reporter, said Senator Adamu is yet to taste the wrath of the youths in the state.
“He is a betrayer. At his age, he should be seen to keep to his words. He didn’t make his intention public all this while. He is now scheming to become national chairman of our party,” he said.
The youth who doesn’t want his name in print, however said they hope it will not get to a showdown and that common sense will prevail on Senator Adamu to make him jettison his quest to become national chairman of the APC.
He described Senator Adamu as a total betrayer, who failed to make his intention to contest the position of the national chairman known but who is now reaching out to prominent politicians across parts of the country, seeking to be imposed as national chairman of the party.
“This is after critical stakeholders of our party, including His Excellency, Engr. Abdullahi A. Sule, publicly adopted Senator Al-Makura as the candidate of the party. Senator Adamu is now seeking to go against the collective decision of the party in the state,” the youth added.
He however warned that if Senator Adamu is eventually imposed as the national chairman of the APC, they will be left with no option than to leave the party in droves.
It would be recalled that critical stakeholders of the APC in Nasarawa State, on January 25, 2022, unanimously adopted Senator Al-Makura as the candidate of the party in the race to occupy the office of the national chairman of the party.
