Mahmud Sadis Buba, popularly known as Al-Ajabin Zazzau, has withdrawn from the race to represent Sabon Gari Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives under the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Buba announced his withdrawal in a letter addressed to the Kaduna State Chairman of the APC and also shared on his verified Facebook page on Saturday.
In the letter, he said the decision followed reconciliation efforts within the party and consultations with key stakeholders.
“Please accept this letter as formal notification that I am withdrawing from the race for Sabon Gari Federal Constituency, House of Representatives, effective immediately,” he wrote.
He described the decision as a difficult one, but said it was taken in the interest of unity and progress within the party.
According to him, backing a single candidate is necessary for the APC’s success in the upcoming elections.
“My withdrawal is not a sign of weakness, but a sacrifice for the greater good of the party,” he stated.
“I ask my supporters to remain calm, united, and to throw their full weight behind the party’s decision and whoever emerges as the party’s candidate,” he added.
