Emeka Ihedioha, the former governor of Imo State, resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) citing a conflict between his personal convictions and the party’s current direction.

In a resignation letter addressed to the chairman of his constituency, Mbutu Ward, Aboh Mbaise Local Government Area of Imo State, Ihedioha expressed his dedication to the advancement of democracy and good governance in Nigeria despite his decision to step away from the party.

Having been a member of the PDP since its inception in 1998, Ihedioha highlighted his contributions to the growth and evolution of the party, noting its historical commitment to internal reforms and providing credible leadership both in and out of power.

However, Ihedioha lamented recent developments within the party, stating that it has deviated from its core principles. He voiced concerns over the party’s inability to enact internal reforms, uphold its own regulations, and effectively oppose the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

The letter reads, “Since 1998, I have contributed my quota to the development and transformation of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as one of the founding . All these years, I have taken pride in the fact that the PDP is a party that will always look inward for internal reforms and provide credible leadership for the people, whether in power or outside power. I have had the benefit of serving and benefiting from the party at various levels.

“Regrettably, in recent times, the party has taken on a path that is at variance with my personal beliefs. Despite my attempt to offer counsel, the party is, sadly, no longer able to carry out internal reforms, enforce its own rules or offer credible opposition to the ruling All Progressives Congress.’

“It is in the light of the foregoing, that I am compelled to offer my resignation from the People’s Democratic Party effective immediately. While the decision was difficult to take, I, however, believe that it is the right one. Despite this resignation, I will always be available to offer my services towards the deepening of democracy and good governance in Nigeria.”

Hmmmmm

Seefinish:
Come to LP

Ezewuzie01:
Where will he port to next? Peter Obi's bad luck has rubbed off on him. We warned him repeatedly about associating with the agulu thief but he wouldn't listen until his green cap fell off his head.

The moment Emeka said he shared same political ideology with Peter Obi was the day he became irrelevant in PDP. It's better he moves to LP (PDP lite) so that he can continue to partake in Peter Obi's APGA curse.

Peter Obi swore with the bible in front of Ojukwu that he will never leave APGA. That's the genesis of Peter's wandering in the political wilderness.

One of these men didn't start, complete and commission a single school as a governor for 8 good years😔😔😔

The brilliant, upright and those blessed with foresight know APC will be ruling for an average of 3 decades and why they all ing the train. Even aggrieved party did not leave APC, they stood aside.

Ihedioha should the winning team and might have another shot at a juicy position.

His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) has perfected the art of winning beyond human comprehension, and only one like him can defeat APC, and he happens to be last political demigod on Earth which makes it outrightly impossible.

Political opponents should align and stop wasting scarce resources.

Alright

No sane person will remain in a party that cannot expel wike. PDP has become weak. It must show strength and discipline.

Obi obsession

A wolf in sheep clothing seeking for better platform to win election. Emeka Ihedioha can you kindly go and sleep. All the money you made in politics for years is enough for you and you 18th generations.

He wants to be a governor on APC platform.

I no know why I like Mbaise so much.

Go and Jagaban ni

Wike and Samdaddy pushed him out of pdp.i wonder if his shortlived tenure qualifies as a term by virtue of section 137 sub 3... Cc Fergie001, dalitigator, samuelanyanwu,norsyk

Ihedioha should LP! This is the surest way of regaining your seat lost to the Supreme Court.

He will move to APC.It is the turn of his zone to produce the next governor of Imo state.

fuckJones:

But under him as a Governor, his State became the highest cut off mark for entrance into Federal Government Colleges in Nigeria till date, topping WAEC results...has your own State Governors been able to achieve that feat till date?

Golan007:
