Senator Ned Nwoko, representing Delta North, has resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party, a political group he has served since its foundation in 1999.
In a resignation letter addressed to the party leadership in Ward 8, Aniocha North Local Government Area of Delta State, dated January 30 and sighted on Friday, the senator expressed dissatisfaction with the current state of the party, citing deep divisions and irreconcilable factions as the primary reasons for his departure.
“My decision to resign is first and foremost due to the deep divisions and factionalisation within the party. This fragmentation has made it increasingly difficult to foster unity and advance the collective interests of our people,” Nwoko stated.
The senator further lamented recent events that underscored the party’s internal strife.
Nwoko thanked the PDP for the platform it provided him during the 2022/2023 senatorial elections, which allowed him to engage with his constituents directly.
However, he underscored his commitment to fulfilling the promises he made during his campaign, a task he believes has been hindered by the party’s current structure in Delta State.
