A Bauchi governorship candidate, Ibrahim Kashim, has resigned from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) effective from Oct. 16.
Kashim announced this in his resignation in a letter addressed to the NDC Bauchi Local Government Area chairman dated Oct. 16, 2026.
Kashim said that the decision followed careful reflection, adding that his action would not affect his commitment to the development of the state.
He explained that his political journey was far from over, adding that he would announce his next move in due course.
Kashim urged his supporters to remain calm, steadfast and united, saying that his mission transcended party affiliation.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that Kashim was among the 15 NDC governorship candidates for the 2027 general elections earlier announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission. (NAN)
