The former lawmaker said his decision was taken in the best interest of his constituents and in line with his personal convictions.
According to him, “I hereby formally tender my resignation from the All Progressive Congress (APC) effective today, 5th April 2026.

“However, after careful reflection and wide consultation, I have come to the considered conclusion that it is in the best interest of my constituents and my personal convictions to step aside from the party at this time. I extend my sincere gratitude to the party for the platform it provided me and for the cooperation and camaraderie extended over the years,” Gaya stated.
