The immediate past Speaker of the House of Representatives Rt. Hon Yakubu Dogara has explained the reasons why he left the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP) for the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), accusing Governor Bala Mohammed of N4.6billion fraud. In a letter of resignation addressed to the Bogoro ‘C’ Ward Chairman of the PDP dated July 24, 2020, Hon Dogara alluded to failure or breakdown of governance in his native state of Bauchi under the administration of Governor Bala Mohammed whom he helped install as a governor in the 2019 elections.

Dogara who raised questions on issues relating to the failure of governance in Bauchi State noted that he cannot successfully ask questions about those issues without being accused of disloyalty if he were to remain in the PDP.

He argued that if he abdicates this responsibility of telling the truth to power in Bauchi State, having done the same under the administrations of former Governors Isa Yuguda and Mohammed Abubakar he will be the most irresponsible and unprincipled politician in Bauchi State.

See Below Letter of Resignation.

The Chairman

People’s Democratic Party,

Bogoro ‘C’ Ward,

Bogoro LGA,

Bauchi State.

 

LETTER OF RESIGNATION OF MY MEMBERSHIP OF THE PDP

The above subject matter refers.

I write to intimate you of my decision to resign my membership of the

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

 

This became necessary because the same reasons why we fought hard in

2019 to effect changes in the Governance of our dear state are festering

now.

I intend to bring these issues to the front burners once again as the

fight to install decent

and egalitarian government in our dear state continues.

Specifically, I intend to ask questions about the following:

  1. What has happened to LGA allocations since May 2019?
  2. What happened to our campaign promise to conduct LGA elections within

six months of the PDP government?

  1. What happened to the N4.6 billion loan taken from a bank and paid

directly into a private company’s account?

  1. Why are we segmenting salaries and why is payment of salaries of

state workers outsourced to a private firm as consultants?

  1. Why are contracts inflated, awarded and payment of mobilisation done

in violation of extant rules on procurement?

  1. Why are our highly revered Traditional Rulers and Elders treated with

odium contrary to the guarantee we gave during the campaign that such

will not happen under a PDP government?

 

Mr. Chairman, you will agree with me that I cannot raise these issues

and many more questions without a charge of disloyalty levelled against

me if I were to remain a member of the PDP.

I cannot also fail to raise these questions now, having raised similar

ones during the administrations of Governors Isa Yuguda and Mohammed A.

Abubakar. If I abdicate this responsibility on the altar of partisan

loyalty, I will be the most irresponsible and unprincipled politician in

Bauchi State.

Thus, by this letter, I have resigned my membership of the PDP to enable

me keep faith with my principle of fighting for good governance in our

Dear State.

Thank you for your kind considerations.

Rt. Hon. Yakubu Dogara
