Former governorship aspirant on that platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC in Ogun State, veteran broadcaster and media personality Modele Sarafa-Yusuf, has resigned her membership of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Sarafa-Yusuf announced her resignation in a statement on Thursday.
She stated that “After an extended period of travelling and spending time with family and following much thought and quiet reflection, I have decided to resign my membership of the All Progressives Congress (APC)."
According to her, “Today, I
informed the leadership of the party in Ogun State and sent in my resignation
letter.”
The politician added, “My time in the APC has been an important part of my political journey, and I am grateful for the people I have met, the relationships I have built and the experiences that have shaped my understanding of public service and leadership.”
She says, the decision was meant to give her the opportunity to reflect on how she can continue to serve the state and Nigeria at large, “however, there comes a time when one must have the courage to reassess one’s path. At this point in my journey, I believe it is important to consider carefully how best I can continue to contribute to Ogun State and Nigeria, and I am comfortable taking the time to make that decision thoughtfully.
“What I know with certainty is that my commitment to public service remains undiminished and that I will continue to be guided by the same values that brought me into public life in the first place: service, integrity, inclusion, competence, and a genuine desire to make a difference.”
Ms Sarafa-Yusuf promised to return to public service in future.
“It is, therefore, important to reiterate that I am not stepping away from public service. I am taking the next step in the journey. And sometimes, moving forward requires giving oneself the space to reflect, to listen, and to decide with clarity where one truly wants to go,” she added.
Modele Sarafa-Yusuf is a veteran television host, journalist, first female to host sports on television and entrepreneur.
She served as special adviser
to Governor Dapo Abiodun on information and strategy, and caught the attention
