Senator (Dr.) Samaila Dahuwa Kaila, who represents Bauchi North Senatorial District in the 10th National Assembly, has resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), blaming the party’s prolonged internal wrangling and factional divisions for his decision.
In a letter dated October 6, 2025, and addressed to the PDP Ward Chairman of Tsakuwa/Kofar Gabar Ward in Azare, Senator Kaila—who also serves as the Deputy Chairman of the Senate Committee on Health—said the unending crisis had hampered his effectiveness as a lawmaker.
“The incessant internal squabble that led to unnecessary factionalisation within the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is seriously affecting my ability to deliver my constitutional responsibility effectively as an elected representative of my constituency in the 10th Senate,” the letter read in part.
He explained that after due consultation with his political allies, he resolved to quit the PDP and seek a new political platform that aligns with his ideals and aspirations.
“I thank you for giving me the opportunity to serve my country in this capacity and I look forward to working with you in the future for the benefit of our dear great country,” he added.
