PDP BoT Member, Waziri, Defects To ADC, Citing Loss Of Credibility

Founding member of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and Board of Trustees member, Adamu Waziri, has resigned from the party and joined the African Democratic Congress.
Waziri announced his decision on Monday at his Dogo Tebo Ward in Potiskum, Yobe State, noting that the move was in line with the PDP constitution, which requires formal resignation at the ward level.
Giving reasons for his decision, Waziri said the PDP no longer reflects the values of a credible opposition.
His words, “I was a member of PDP, and due to the exigencies of the moment and in the interest of the nation, I have decided to resign."
The former BoT member urged his followers to join him in supporting a new political movement that can strengthen democracy and ensure better governance, adding that, the decision as difficult but necessary,  since the current leadership of the PDP has lost its way.
In response, PDP Ward Chairman Malam Muhammad Bomai, who represented the local leadership, accepted Waziri’s resignation with regret, calling him a pillar of the party.
“Waziri has been an institution within the PDP, and we will feel his absence deeply,” Bomai said, before announcing his own 
resignation from the PDP and immediate defection to ADC, noting that he shared Waziri’s vision for a better country.
