The Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Yobe State, Mohammed Gadaka, has stirred controversy after urging married women to divorce husbands who prevent them from voting for the party in the 2027 general elections.
Gadaka made the remarks at a political gathering in the state, where he appealed to women to remain committed to the APC despite opposition from their spouses.
In a video circulating on social media, the APC chairman was heard telling women that they should leave their marriages if their husbands attempted to stop them from voting for the party.
He also promised to pay the dowry of any woman who leaves her marriage over the issue and offered to marry her.
