Senator Yusuf Datti Baba- Ahmed, a governorship aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kaduna State, has withdrawn from the race.
The founder of BAZE University Abuja, however, said he would remain loyal to the party.
PDP had slated its governorship primaries in Kaduna State for Wednesday.
He said in a letter to the state PDP chairman, Mr Hassan Hyet that credible first-hand reports have proved that the PDP was yet to learn lessons.
He said, “These are inconsistent with my purpose of being in politics.
”Unless checked, what is happening within the PDP could jeopardise its chances in 2023.”
“I consequently hereby respectfully withdraw from the 2023 governorship contest of Kaduna State under our great party the PDP. I however remain loyal and supportive. I pray for the day we get our actions right for the sake of Nigeria.”
