\n\nSenator Saliu Mustapha, representing Kwara Central Senatorial District, has resigned from the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The development was reported on Friday, August 21, 2026, adding to the political movements and realignments taking place across Nigeria as political activities intensify ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Mustapha’s resignation is significant because he is a prominent political figure in Kwara, and his departure comes at a time when Nigeria’s political landscape is witnessing increased movement among politicians and political groups.
The senator’s decision could have implications for the APC’s political calculations in Kwara, particularly as parties begin strengthening their structures ahead of the next election cycle.
The development also comes amid wider political realignments across the country, with the opposition seeking to challenge the APC’s dominance and several political actors positioning themselves ahead of the 2027 presidential and legislative elections.
More details on the reasons behind Mustapha’s resignation and his next political move are expected to emerge as the development unfolds.
