Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri has officially taken over leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Adamawa State following a state congress held in Yola. At the event, Fintiri declared the party "fully fused" and ready for the 2027 general elections, pledging a comprehensive victory for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The gathering, attended by key party members, marked Fintiri's formal assumption of the caretaker role amid ongoing tensions within the state chapter. Despite claims of unity, the congress unfolded against a backdrop of internal dissent, with factions of the party reportedly at odds over leadership direction and structure. Fintiri, currently serving as governor under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), did not address the constitutional or party guidelines implications of leading a rival party's state chapter. No timeline was provided for the establishment of a fully elected executive committee.
