Newscenter Media News A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Anambra State, Mr. Samben Nwosu, has resigned his membership in the party.
Nwosu, a foundation member of the party announced his resignation from PDP in a letter addressed to the party’s leadership in Otolo Ward 1, Nnewi.
The letter was made available to journalists on Friday in Awka.
Nwosu said recent events made him to reevaluate his position in the party after several years of commitment and dedication to its ideals of promoting democratic tenets.
He wrote: “But recently a full swing has taken shape within the party, especially as it has to do with unfair treatment and orchestrated embarrassments by some political merchants within the party.
“The most popular of such embarrassment was the pseudo signing of a suspension letter by an unknown organ of the party, without due process or proper notification to myself.
“The next Senatorial elections rerun is an opportunity to showcase to the people that a prepared mind is better than a monetized mind and hence, my resignation.”
Nwosu, a former Federal Commissioner, Public Complaints Commission, said his decision to resign from the PDP was not an easy one.
“I have been a member of the party since 1998 and have contributed immensely to its growth and development.
“ I refuse to dignify these godfathers and their agents, who have indicated an interest in monetising the next senatorial elections in Anambra South.
“I am going to take a few days to evaluate all the available options ahead of the forthcoming election and thereafter I will notify the general public about it,” he added.
