Kola Ologbondiyan Resigns from PDP, Ends Years of Political Service

Former National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Kola Ologbondiyan, has officially resigned from the party, bringing to a close years of involvement in its national leadership and political activities.

Ologbondiyan confirmed his departure in a letter addressed to the PDP Chairman of Okekoko Ward (Ward 09) in Kabba/Bunu Local Government Area, Kogi State. Dated December 5, 2025, the letter was also shared publicly on his X social media account on Saturday.

In the letter, he expressed gratitude to the party leadership at all levels for the responsibilities and opportunities entrusted to him. “Let me start by thanking you as well as other levels of leadership in the PDP for the opportunities provided for me to serve the party as well as our fatherland, Nigeria,” he wrote.

He explained that his decision followed a personal review of his political journey, leading him to conclude that it was time to step away. “It is now imperative to bring your attention to the fact that I have reviewed my participation in the PDP and came to the conclusion that, for personal reasons, I need to make my exit. I have therefore decided to formally withdraw my membership of the PDP, henceforth,” he added.

Ologbondiyan formally notified the ward leadership of his withdrawal and extended his best wishes to the party. A former journalist, he also served as Director of Media and Publicity for the PDP Presidential Campaign Council during the 2019 elections, and previously worked as an aide to former Senate President David Mark, who now chairs the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
