The lawmaker representing Sokoto South Senatorial District, Aminu Tambuwal has officially decamped to the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
Tambuwal announced his defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the ADC on his social media account on Wednesday, March 12, 2026.
In a photo post made on X, the former Sokoto governor said he has also informed his ward chairman of his resignation from the PDP “in writing”.
His words, “Today, after deep reflection and consultations, I have formally resigned my membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and I have communicated my resignation to my ward chairman in writing.”
Describing his former party as a significant part of his political journey, Tambuwal appreciated the PDP for the opportunity to use the platform to serve his people and promote his political career.
“The PDP has been a significant part of my political journey, and I remain grateful for the opportunities it gave me to serve our nation, including as Speaker of the House of Representatives and as Governor of Sokoto State during my second term in office,” Tambuwal said.
He, however, stated that his decision to leave the PDP followed the persistent leadership crisis and divisions rocking the party.
He further explained that the long-standing crisis in the PDP has, over time, weakened unity among party members and leaders, disrupting the once-defined party.
“However, the persistent internal crisis, leadership disagreements, and growing divisions within the PDP have made it increasingly difficult to continue my membership in the party. These developments have unfortunately weakened the unity and direction that once defined the party and have necessitated this decision.
“Consequently, I have today officially joined the African Democratic Congress (ADC) with my associates and supporters.

Favor As Higher Power?
(The hidden truth)
Some positions in life cannot be held or retained for long if you are not favored. Favor is higher power. You are not the only one desiring, deserving, connected, powerful or qualified. Some positions in life, opportunities, success, achievements, triumphs, selection, approvals, power and position, elevation, patronage, etc, are mainly through favor. Favor is silent, spiritual and higher power. For spiritual guidance, other solutions, call/Whatsapp Dr J.A. Faros on 07030514063. With God, all are possible.
