This is contained in a letter addressed to the Chairman, Social Democratic Party, Tudun Kofa Ward in the Keffi Local Government Area of Nasarawa State.

The letter cited on Thursday, was titled “Notification of Resignation from the Social Democratic Party (SDP).”

It read, “I am writing to inform you of my decision to resign as a member of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), effective immediately. This decision has not been taken lightly but I feel compelled to do so due to the lingering internal crisis that has plagued our party for some time. As you are aware, these internal conflicts have led to serious division and litigation within the party. I appreciate the opportunities given to me while been (sic) a member of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) and grateful for the experiences and relationships built. However, I feel it is time for me to move on and explore new avenues.”
