Senator Ibrahim Lamido, representing Sokoto East Senatorial District, has formally resigned from the All Progressives Congress (APC), citing escalating insecurity and concerns over the welfare of his constituents as the primary reasons for his departure.
Announcing his decision on Saturday via his official X account, Lamido stated, “I, Senator Ibrahim Lamido, representing the good people of Sokoto East Senatorial District, hereby resign from the APC with immediate effect.”
The senator explained that his resignation was prompted by the APC’s failure to effectively tackle the growing security challenges in his district.
Lamido’s decision comes amid rising fears over banditry, kidnappings, and other violent incidents in parts of Sokoto State, which have increasingly affected local communities.
