Ex Governor Shekarau Exits PDP
In Kano State, former governor Ibrahim Shekarau has resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party. His decision, contained in a letter dated April 19, 2026, takes immediate effect.
The letter was addressed to his ward chairman in Giginyu. Copies were also sent to party leaders at local and state levels.
Shekarau said his exit followed wide consultations within his political group. He explained that the move is part of a broader plan to join another political platform.
The former governor described it as a strategic realignment. His departure adds to growing changes within the party.
He also thanked party leaders at the ward level for their support. His message reflected appreciation despite the decision to leave.
The development comes after months of speculation about his political future. Internal tensions within the party had fuelled such rumours.
Although there are reports linking him to the ruling All Progressives Congress, he has not confirmed his next move.
Observers say his decision could reshape political dynamics in Kano. Attention now shifts to where he will align ahead of future elections. The situation continues to draw interest across political circles.
