On March 12, 2026, Aminu Tambuwal, a prominent Nigerian politician, formally announced his resignation from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). This decision comes after a series of persistent internal crises and leadership disagreements within the party, which Tambuwal cited as the primary reasons for his departure.

Tambuwal’s political career has been marked by significant milestones. He served as the Speaker of the House of Representatives from 2011 to 2015 and was elected governor of Sokoto State in 2015 under the All Progressives Congress. After defecting to the PDP in 2015, he was re-elected as governor in 2019. Following the completion of his second term in 2023, he was elected as the senator representing Sokoto South.

In his resignation letter, Tambuwal stated, “I write to formally tender my resignation as a member of the PDP.” He elaborated that the PDP’s internal crisis had made it increasingly difficult to continue his membership of the party.

Shortly after his resignation, Tambuwal announced his defection to the African Democratic Congress (ADC). However, this move has not been without controversy. A faction of the ADC in Sokoto State disowned Tambuwal’s defection, claiming he did not follow proper procedures for membership.

The ADC leadership has also stated that they had no record of Tambuwal’s registration at the ward level, raising questions about the legitimacy of his defection. They warned Tambuwal against interfering in the party’s affairs in Sokoto State, indicating potential challenges ahead for him.

As of now, the situation remains fluid, with tensions between Tambuwal and the ADC leadership evident. The political landscape in Sokoto State may shift significantly depending on how this situation unfolds.

This sequence of events is crucial for those involved, as it highlights the ongoing struggles within Nigerian political parties and the implications of leadership crises on party membership and loyalty. Tambuwal’s next steps will be closely monitored as they could influence the political dynamics in Sokoto State and beyond.

Details remain unconfirmed regarding the internal processes of the ADC and how they will address Tambuwal’s situation moving forward.
