Senator Ahmed Wadada Aliyu, representing Nasarawa West, has formally resigned from the Social Democratic Party (SDP).
Wadada in a letter dated August 20, 2025, addressed to the SDP ward chairman in Tudun Kofa, Keffi Local Government Area of Nasarawa State, cited persistent internal crises and litigations within the party as his reason for exiting.
“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,” the letter reads.
The lawmaker expressed appreciation for the opportunities and relationships built during his time in the SDP but maintained that it was time to “move on and explore new avenues.”
Wadada is believed to be a likely contender for the Nasarawa State governorship position in 2027.
