Adamu Abubakar Resigns from PDP Amid Political Shifts

Adamu Abubakar, the son of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has officially resigned from the People's Democratic Party (PDP). He announced his decision in a letter addressed to the chairman of PDP Jada 1 Ward in Jada Local Government Area, indicating that his resignation takes immediate effect.

In his letter, dated March 2, 2026, Adamu expressed gratitude to the ward leadership and members of the PDP for their support during his tenure. His resignation comes amid significant political realignments within major parties in Nigeria, particularly following the recent defection of Adamawa State Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri from the PDP to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Adamu described his time in office as a privilege and expressed appreciation for the opportunity to serve the people of Adamawa State, requesting that his resignation be formally communicated to relevant party authorities.
