Breaking: Ex-Senate President, David Mark, Resigns From PDP

A former President of the Senate, Dr. David Mark, has resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party.
It is recalled that Mark was announced late on Tuesday as the Interim National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress, which is being primed as the vehicle for the opposition elements to unseat President Bola Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress from power in 2027.
The resignation of the retired Nigerian Army general was made known via a letter dated June 27, 2025 to the PDP leadership in Otukpo Ward 1, Benue State.
It was titled: “NOTICE OF RESIGNATION FROM THE PEOPLES DEMOCRATIC PARTY,”
Mark, who was the president of the Senate in the 6th and 7th Assemblies, wrote in the letter dated June 27, 2025: “I bring warm greetings to you and members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Otukpo Ward 1, and by extension, to the entire Benue State and Nigeria. I write to formally inform you of my decision to resign my membership of the party with immediate effect.
“You may recall that over the years, I have remained firm and deeply committed to the ideals of the PDP. Even when nearly all stakeholders departed the party following our loss in the 2015 presidential election, I pledged to remain the last man standing.
“I have worked steadfastly to rebuild, reconcile, and reposition the party, efforts which without sounding immodest helped restore the PDP to national relevance and made it once again a party of choice for many Nigerians.
“However, recent events marked by deepening divisions, persistent leadership crisis, and irreconcilable differences have reduced the party to a shadow of its former self, subjecting it to public ridicule.
“After wide consultations with my family, friends, and political associates, I have resolved to join the National Coalition of Political Opposition Movement in Nigeria, as part of the collective effort to rescue our nation and preserve our hard-earned democracy.
“Thank you, and may God bless you.”
