Ex-Gombe gov Goje reaffirms APC membership

Danjuma Goje, a former governor of Gombe State and senator representing Gombe Central, has reaffirmed his membership in the All Progressives Congress (APC). This came after speculation arose that he might leave the party before the 2027 general elections. Goje, a founding member of the APC, addressed his supporters in Abuja, stating he remains a member of the party.

He urged his supporters to remain loyal to the APC, emphasizing his long-standing commitment to the party. Goje, who has been active in politics for nearly 45 years, recounted his extensive political career, including eight elections he won. He had previously retired from active politics in 2019 but returned to contest the 2023 Senate election.

Despite retiring from active politics, Goje assured his supporters that his empowerment programs would continue regardless of his political status.
