The All Progressives Congress has postponed its State, Local Government, and Ward congresses scheduled to hold in Adamawa State.
The decision was conveyed in a letter dated February 17, 2026, and addressed to the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission.
The correspondence, signed by the party’s National Chairman, Nentawe Yilwatda, and National Secretary, Ajibola Basiru, indicated that a new date for the congresses would be communicated at a later time.
“We write to inform you that the State, Local Government, and Ward Congresses for Adamawa State have been postponed.
A new date will be communicated in due course. Thank you, and please accept the assurances of our highest regards,” the letter read.
Sources familiar with the development said the postponement is aimed at allowing Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri time to conclude plans to defect from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the APC ahead of the rescheduled congresses.
