The senator who represented the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) in the 9th Senate, Philip Aduda, has resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Aduda, who was the former Senate minority leader, cited the lingering crisis within the party as the reason for his decision.

Aduda’s resignation was contained in a letter sighted by The Nation, and addressed to the Chairman of PDP in Karu Ward.

The resignation is titled: “Notice of Resignation of My membership from the PDP.”

It reads: “I write to formally notify you of my resignation as a member of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) with immediate effect due to the crisis in the party.

“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.”

His departure underscores growing concerns about internal divisions and instability within the PDP ahead of future political contests.

Meanwhile, there are indications that Aduda is expected to join the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the coming days.
