Former Senate President David Mark has officially resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), bringing to an end his decades-long association with the party he helped found.
Mark, who played a key role in shaping the PDP since its inception, announced his resignation in a letter dated June 27th and addressed to the PDP leadership in Otukpo Ward 1, Benue State where he lamented that recent internal conflicts have severely weakened the party.
Notably, the development follows his recent appointment as one of the interim leaders of the coalition-backed African Democratic Congress (ADC), a move that signals a shift in Nigeria’s evolving political landscape.
Hence, he further highlighted that the decision to leave the People’s Democratic Party came after extensive consultations with family, political allies, and close associates.
