Former Governor of Benue State, Gabriel Suswam, has officially resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), citing the party’s lingering internal crisis as his reason for stepping down.
In a letter dated February 4 and addressed to the Chairman of the Mbagber Council Ward in Logo Local Government Area, Suswam described his decision as both “honorable and necessary,” while wishing the party success should it eventually resolve its long-standing disputes.
Although the former governor did not disclose his next political destination, sources indicate that he is closely associated with a coalition of opposition leaders exploring the African Democratic Congress (ADC) platform for the forthcoming elections.
“I consider it honorable and necessary to step aside while wishing the party well should it one day find the courage and consensus to resolve its long-standing issues,” the letter read.
Suswam’s resignation comes amid rising tensions within the PDP, which has faced persistent leadership struggles and internal wrangling ahead of the 2027 general elections.
