Former Kano Central Senator, Rufai Sani Hanga, has resigned his membership of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), citing personal and political considerations.
Hanga announced his decision in a resignation letter dated August 3, 2026, addressed to the leadership of the party, bringing an end to his association with the NDC.
Although he did not immediately disclose his next political destination, the former lawmaker expressed appreciation to the party’s leadership and members for the opportunity to serve and collaborate during his time in the organisation.
His resignation comes amid ongoing political realignments and consultations ahead of the 2027 general election, with several politicians reviewing their affiliations and future political strategies.
The development is expected to fuel further speculation over Hanga’s next political move as parties continue to strengthen their structures in preparation for the forthcoming elections.
The letter reads in full “I am writing to formally notify you of my resignation from the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, effective from today, 3rd August 2026.”
“After careful reflection and personal deliberation, I have decided to withdraw my membership from the party to pursue other personal commitments and career paths.
