In a letter dated January 10, 2026, and addressed to the chairman of the PDP in Galadimawa Ward, Doma Local Government Area, Onawo stated that his resignation takes immediate effect.

“I write to formally notify you of my resignation as a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Galadimawa Ward, Doma Local Government Area, with effect from today, 10th January, 2026. This decision has been taken after careful consideration and is purely for personal reasons,” he wrote.
