The Northern Stakeholders Consultative Forum (NSCF) has cautioned the All Progressives Congress (APC) against entertaining any attempts by Senator Lawal Usman Adamu, popularly known as Mr. LA, to return to the party, describing the move as a desperate attempt to salvage his dwindling political relevance.
In a statement issued on Thursday and signed by its spokesperson, Comrade Danjuma Paul, the NSCF accused the Senator, who currently represents Kaduna Central Senatorial District, of political inconsistency and a lack of genuine commitment to the welfare of his constituents.
“Senator LA’s recent political trajectory has been nothing short of opportunistic. From defecting from the APC to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and now allegedly exploring ties with the African Democratic Congress (ADC), his political manoeuvres reveal a pattern of survivalist politics rather than public service,” the statement read.
The forum said such frequent political realignments raise questions about the senator’s ideological convictions and loyalty to the platforms that brought him to office.
NSCF described Senator LA's tenure as being devoid of legislative achievements or impactful constituency projects, accusing him of engaging in “belly politics” and filing frivolous petitions rather than addressing the pressing needs of the people he represents.
“His record is marked by an absence of significant legislation or developmental initiatives. Instead of returning to his constituency with innovative solutions, he has chosen to deploy political theatrics that have done little to improve the lives of his constituents,” the group stated.
The forum urged APC stakeholders at both the state and national levels to reject any overtures from the senator, warning that his return to the party would be a setback for efforts to uphold integrity, accountability, and performance-based politics.
“At a time when political parties should be prioritising competence and genuine representation, it would be unwise to welcome an individual whose political career has been defined by inconsistency and underperformance,” the statement added.
The group reaffirmed its commitment to supporting candidates with a clear track record of service and urged party leaders to remain focused on strengthening the APC with credible and committed individuals.
