Big Loss For PDP as Former Governorship Candidate Resigns, Gives Reason

• The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has lost a chieftain of the party in Kebbi state ahead of the 2027 election
• The 2019 PDP governorship candidate in Kebbi state, Senator Isa Galaudu, has submitted his resignation letter to the party chairman in his ward
• Galaudu, who was the senator representing Kebbi North (2011–2015), explained the reason he decided to dump the PDP

Galaudu is the former chief of staff to the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, and ex-Senator representing Kebbi North (2011–2015).

He was a significant political figure in Kebbi State and a strong contender in the 2019 governorship election.

“I write to inform you of my resignation with immediate effect as a member of the PDP.

“It’s obvious that the PDP is being controlled by politicians of the national ruling party.”

He, however, did not indicate the political party he intends to join after resigning from the PDP ahead of the 2027 election.

Former Abia deputy governor resigns from PDP

Recall that in a major twist of events, former deputy governor of Abia state, Ude Oko Chukwu, dumped the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Ude Oko Chukwu cited personal reasons, thereby ending a long-standing political affiliation with the party.

However, speculations indicated that Ude Oko Chukwu made this move after endorsing Governor Alex Otti’s second-term bid ahead of the 2027 election.
