Former Senate Minority Leader, Philip Aduda, has resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party, citing the party’s prolonged internal crisis.
Aduda, who represented the Federal Capital Territory in the 9th Senate, announced his resignation in a letter addressed to the PDP Chairman of Karu Ward.
In the letter titled “Notice of Resignation of My Membership from the PDP,” the former lawmaker said his decision takes immediate effect and is driven by ongoing instability within the party.
“I write to formally notify you of my resignation as a member of the Peoples Democratic Party with immediate effect due to the crisis in the party,” he stated.
Reflecting on his time in the party, Aduda expressed appreciation for the opportunities he received while serving under its platform.
“I remain grateful for the opportunity the party gave me to serve in various elective positions in our nation. Please accept the assurances of my high esteem,” he added.
His resignation adds to growing concerns over internal divisions within the PDP, as the party continues to grapple with leadership disputes and organisational challenges ahead of future elections.
