Mr Atiku-Abubakar said the “resignation does not mark the end of his commitment to public service, but rather the beginning of new avenues for developmental collaboration.

“He reaffirmed his readiness to continue contributing meaningfully to the growth, unity, and progress of Adamawa State”, the statement said.

The development followed Governor Fintiri’s defection to the APC, alongside several of his cabinet members and high-ranking government officials.
