The Executive Chairperson of Tudun Wada Local Government Area, Hon. Sa’adatu Salisu Soja MaiJamaa, has formally resigned from the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), stating that her decision was motivated by the need to align with the political direction of Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf.
In a resignation letter dated Friday, January 23, 2026, addressed to the NNPP leadership in Tudun Wada Local Government, Hon. Sa’adatu said her resignation was necessitated by her desire to follow the footsteps of the Governor.
The letter, made available to newsmen, reads in part, “My decision to resign was necessitated in order to follow the footsteps of my leader, His Excellency Alhaji Abba Kabir Yusuf, Executive Governor of Kano State.”
She added that her decision was carefully taken to support the development agenda of Kano State and its people through meaningful projects and initiatives.
“In view of the above, I hereby resign my membership of the party,” the letter stated.
Hon. Sa’adatu also expressed gratitude to the party leadership and members for their support during her tenure, saying:
“I wish to thank the party leadership and members for the support they have given me during my stay as a member of this great party.”
The development is expected to further weaken the NNPP’s influence in Kano State as more members continue to realign with the Governor’s political direction.
