A source close to the former vice president hinted that Atiku would in the coming days declare his intention to run for president on the platform of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) the political party adopted by the coalition
The resignation letter sighted by The Verge reads, “I am writing to formally resign my membership from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) with immediate effect.
“I would like to take this opportunity to express my profound gratitude for the opportunities I have been given by the party. Serving two full terms as Vice President of Nigeria and being a Presidential candidate twice has been one of the most significant chapters in my life. As a founding member of this esteemed party, it is indeed heartbreaking for me to make this decision.
“However, I find it necessary to part ways due to current trajectory the party has taken, which I believe diverges from the foundational principles we stood for. It is with heavy heart that I resign, recognising irreconcilable differences that have emerged.”
