DAILY POST can authoritatively report that mass resignation has hit the Anambra State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), following the recent resignation of the former governor, Mr Peter Obi from the party.
Obi, a presidential aspirant had on Wednesday resigned his membership of the PDP and also withdrawn from the party’s presidential primary.
Obi had cited irregularities in the processes leading to the party’s presidential primary election as a reason for his resignation.
His action was said to have dampened the zeal and aspiration of some of the party’s aspirants to national and state assembly, as it is believed that Obi’s popularity in the state has a way of affecting other aspirants of his party positively.
Mr Valentine Ozigbo, PDP’s governorship candidate in the November 2021 governorship election in Anambra who is running for the Senate has also withdrawn from the race.
Valentine Ayika and George Ozodinobi, former members of the national assembly are among those who also withdrew and resigned from the party.
Ozigbo in his resignation letter which was addressed to the National Chairman of the party, Senator Iyorchia Ayu, said the party has been highjacked by three Senatorial aspirants and their cohorts.
He listed the aspirants to include; Senator Uche Ekwunife, Senator Stella Oduah and self-styled godfather of Anambra politics, Chris Uba, who is also running for the Senate…
