The Governorship candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) for the 2027 general election in Bauchi State, Ibrahim Muhammad Kashim, has resigned from the party and stepped down from the election.
His letter of resignation dated October 16, 2026, was sent to the NDC chairman in Bauchi Local Government Area.
In it, he told party leaders he was leaving the NDC and that the move took effect immediately.
Kashim said the decision came after careful thought and was simply a personal choice.
He offered no other reasons.
The letter says in part : “I hereby formally tender my resignation from the National Democratic Congress (NDC), effective from the date of this letter.”
He thanked the leadership and members for the chance to be part of the party.
He also acknowledged the support he had received.
Then, he asked the chairman to confirm receipt and update the records.
The development is unfolding as parties start lining up candidates for the 2027 general elections.
But the letter gave no hint about whether Kashim plans to join another party or chase his ambitions somewhere else. It stayed silent on his next political move.
