Former Attorney General of the Federation, Michael Kaase Aondoakaa, has resigned from the All Progressives Congress (APC), citing “prevailing circumstances” and the need to protect democratic values and the interests of his people.

In a statement issued on Saturday, Aondoakaa said his resignation took effect from March 28, 2026, following extensive consultations with family members, political allies, and supporters.

He expressed gratitude for the opportunity to serve within the APC and contribute to its growth over the years.

The former minister commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his leadership, noting that Benue State has benefited from the administration’s policies.

He also praised the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume, for his role in shaping the APC in Benue State.

Aondoakaa assured both leaders of his continued respect and support, despite his exit from the ruling party.

“This decision follows careful reflection and wide consultations… in the overall interest of my people and democratic values,” he said.

He added, “At this critical time, I call on all my supporters to remain calm, peaceful, and steadfast.”

The former AGF hinted that a new political direction would be unveiled soon, aimed at repositioning Benue State.
