Former Governor Emeka Ihedioha of Imo State has resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Ihedioha, disclosed this in a resignation letter addressed to the PDP chairman in Mbutu Ward, Aboh Mbaise Local Government Area of the state.

He said; “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.”
