Big Loss For PDP as Former Governorship Candidate Resigns, Gives Reason
Former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in Kebbi State, Senator Isa Galaudu, has resigned from the party citing recent developments as the reason. Galaudu's resignation, effective immediately, was confirmed through a formal letter submitted to the ward chairman on Sunday, August 20, 2025.
Galaudu, a former chief of staff to Senate President Bukola Saraki, is considered a significant political figure in Kebbi State and was a strong contender in the 2019 governorship election.
