Hon. Kabiru Mijinyawa, a former Speaker of the Adamawa State House of Assembly and representative of Yola South Constituency, has announced his departure from the All Progressives Congress (APC) and his joining of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM). Mijinyawa, who served under the previous Governor Muhammad Umaru Jibrilla Bindow, made the announcement through a letter dated September 12, 2026, addressed to the APC Ward Chairman of Adarawo in Yola South Local Government Area.
The decision to leave the APC was not taken easily, as Mijinyawa expressed deep concern over the conduct of the recent APC primary election in his constituency. He cited issues of unfairness, lack of transparency, and credibility, stating that the process did not align with the principles of internal democracy. Mijinyawa emphasized his commitment to fairness, justice, accountability, and democratic values, and highlighted the need to assess campaign promises before making a decision.
His move to the APM is expected to have a significant impact on the political landscape of Adamawa State, particularly in Yola South, where he currently serves in the State House of Assembly.
