There are no political reasons for his resignation. “I look back on eleven enriching and successful years in federal politics.” After three legislative periods, it is time to take new paths and make room for the next political generation. Diaby wants to exercise his mandate until the end of the legislative period. “Of course I will remain active in the SPD and committed to cohesion in our city,” the Bundestag member continued.

Diaby comes from Senegal and has been the subject of repeated racist attacks in recent years. In addition to death threats and insults, there have been several attacks on his office.
