Breaking: Senator Ningi Resigns from PDP

From Paul Orude Bauchi

Senator Abdul Ahmed Ningi (Bauchi Central) has formally resigned his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Ningi has been a member of the PDP for over 20 years 

He made this known in a resignation letter addressed to the PDP Chairman of Ningi Ward in Ningi Local Government Area of Bauchi State.

He  said his decision, though difficult, became necessary after wide consultations with stakeholders, associates, and supporters.

Ningi joined the PDP in 1998 and had since benefited from the platform to serve in various capacities, including two terms as a Member of the House of Representatives and two terms as a Senator of the Federal 

He described the PDP as “once the largest political party in Africa” with strong ideology, unity, and democratic values that enabled participatory governance.

He expressed concern over what he described as internal leadership crises, factional divisions, and competing interests within PFO, saying it had weakened its unity and structure.

“It is now a great concern and worrisome to me that this virile and united platform could be turned into a ramshackle organization with internal leadership wrangling and factional interests,” he wrote.

Ningi said the decision to leave PDP was one of the most difficult moments of his political career.

He noted that the PDP had provided him with the opportunity to serve his constituency and the country creditably.

He expressed gratitude to party leaders at the ward, senatorial, and other levels who supported his political journey over the years.

While bidding farewell to the party, he prayed for those remaining in the PDP, urging them to remain committed and work toward restoring the party to its former strength.

“As I continue my political career outside the Peoples Democratic Party, please accept my best regards,” he concluded.
