Former Governor of Sokoto State, Senator Aminu Tambuwal, has formally resigned his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and joined the African Democratic Congress (ADC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a letter dated March 11, 2026, addressed to his ward chairman in Tambuwal\/Shinfiri Ward, Tambuwal Local Government Area, Tambuwal communicated his decision to leave the PDP with immediate effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The former Speaker of the House of Representatives explained that his decision followed deep reflection and extensive consultations with political associates and supporters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to him, persistent internal crises, leadership disagreements, and growing divisions within the party had made it increasingly difficult for him to continue his membership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tambuwal, who represents Sokoto South Senatorial District, noted that the ongoing conflicts within the PDP had weakened the unity and direction that once defined the party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He, however, expressed gratitude to the PDP for the opportunity it gave him to serve Nigeria in various capacities in both the legislative and executive arms of government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Following his resignation, Tambuwal officially joined the African Democratic Congress (ADC) alongside his associates and supporters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He further stated that his decision was guided by his conviction that Nigeria requires a stronger political platform built on integrity, accountability, inclusiveness, and a clear commitment to national development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tambuwal also reaffirmed his commitment to the service of Nigeria and to the ideals of democracy, justice, and national unity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
