Less than 24 hours after the People's Democratic Party (PDP) Chairmanship candidate for Bwari Area Council, Julius Adamu, stepped down for the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Joshua Ishaku Musa, the Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC) PDP Chairmanship Candidate, Hon. Zadna Dantani, has also stepped down for the APC candidate, Hon. Christopher Zakka Maikalangu.

Dantani, who said his decision to step down was aftermath of intervention by the Minister of Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, added that he has also submitted a letter of withdrawal to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

He said; "My name is Hon. Zadna Dantani, the Chairmanship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the Abuja Municipal Area Council for the Saturday's Area Council elections.

"I want to sincerely appreciate everyone who supported us and by the grace of God, we are doing it not because of our personal interests.

"I am here to tell my people that as a candidate who is standing for this election, I have today, agreed based on the intervention of the Honourable Minister of FCT, Barrister Nyesom Wike, who is our leader in the party and the leader in FCT, who has called my attention to let us know that this is a brotherhood election.

"I have consulted widely and by the grace of God we have agreed that we are no longer going to contest against my brother, Hon Christopher Zakka Maikalangu.

"By doing so, I also submitted a letter of withdrawal to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) today.

"I therefore call on all my supporters a cross the 12 wards in the Abuja Municipal Area Council to come out enmasse to support Hon Christopher Maikalangu, who is the candidate of APC."

Dantani's letter to INEC read; "I write to respectfully inform you that I, Hon. Zadna Dantani of Gosa Village along Airport Road FCT Abuja, a member and the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), have decided to voluntarily withdraw from contesting for the Chairmanship position of Abuja Municipal Area Council, in the forthcoming Area Council Elections which is scheduled to hold on 21st February, 2026, after due other consideration and thorough consultation with my Family and relevant stakeholders.

"I wish to state unequivocally that this decision to withdraw my candidature is borne out of my own freewill volition.

"Accept the assurances of my warm regards, please."

APC is feeling the pressure. All these moves by Wike thinking he will use it to show relevance to the president will backfire. He has left it to late. Some of their supporters who have invested time and energy will revolt and not all will vote Maikalangu simply because Wike says so.
