PDP North East Ex-officio Bennet, Resigns

A North East Ex-officio of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Mole Istifanus Bennet, has resigned from the party in Gombe State.

Bennet, who was the immediate past state women leader of the party, resigned a few days after she led a forum of past PDP women leaders from the 11 local government areas of the state in a protest against their alleged abandonment and exclusion from the campaign council of the party’s governorship candidate Mohammed Barde.

She tendered her resignation in a letter dated 3rd November, 2022, addressed to the PDP chairman of her Kaltungo West Ward.

The letter reads in parts, “I wish to humbly write and respectfully inform you of my decision to withdraw my membership from the party as from today.

“I would want to use this medium to most sincerely thank the leadership of the party at all levels for giving me the opportunity to serve,” she said.
