Director General of the ruling All Progressive Governors’ Forum (PGF), Salihu Mohammed Lukman, has resigned.
Lukman’s resignation is coming as the crisis deepened over the All Progressives Congress’ (APC) national convention.
The DG, it was learned, resigned on Monday following a sharp division among the APC governors during their Sunday night meeting in Abuja.
Lukman, according to inside sources, submitted his letter of resignation to the Chairman of the Progressive Governors’ Forum and Kebbi State Governor Atiku Bagudu.
It was gathered that some governors at the meeting wanted Lukman to either resign or be sacked, hence his resignation.
However, a majority of the governors wanted him to remain as the forum’s DG, while a few others insisted he must go.
