Senator Aisha Alhassan, Minister of Women Affairs, aka Mama
Taraba, has resigned her membership of the All Progressives Congress
(APC), and also parted ways to Buhari government as a Minister.
In her letter to the President dated Saturday, 29 September, 2018,
the former Minister thanked President Muhammadu Buhari for the
opportunity to serve.
Mama Taraba recalled how she was duly screened and cleared before her
appointment and how she also notified the President of her interest in
contesting for the Taraba governorship seat.
Alhassan stated that all through her sojourn up to collection of form
and mobilisation for the Presidential and Gubernatorial primaries, she
kept the President Buhari in the know.
She also stated that she was disqualified by the APC from contesting the governorship seat and more troubled when no reason was given.
According to her, it would be out of place for her to remain as a
Minister in the government when the party that formed the government
does not find her qualified to be a governor, she claimed she felt betrayed and let down by the party.
See her resignation letter below.
You did well
