Ibrahim Kashim, former Secretary to the Bauchi State Government and the 2023 governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has officially resigned from the party, effective July 21, 2025.
In a resignation letter obtained on Monday, Kashim thanked the PDP for the opportunity to serve and for entrusting him with the party’s gubernatorial ticket in the last election cycle. He notably stepped down from the race in 2023 to back Governor Bala Mohammed’s re-election bid, supporting the governor’s campaign across Bauchi Local Government despite the typical hurdles faced by second-term hopefuls.
“After careful reflection, I have decided to resign my membership of the PDP. I remain committed to serving our people with integrity, sincerity, and the fear of Allah,” Kashim stated.
He had earlier left his position as SSG in January 2025, following what sources described as a directive from Governor Mohammed.
Although Kashim has not yet disclosed his next political move, there is growing speculation that he may seek the Bauchi governorship again in 2027 under a new political platform.
