A former Director of Media and Publicity of the Ondo State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, Ayo Fadaka, has resigned from the party, Peak Newspaper reports.
His resignation was contained in a letter addressed to the chairman of Ward B in the Akure South Local Government Area, on Thursday.
The letter was titled “Resignation from the Peoples Democratic Party.”
Fadaka said his decision was due to the various crises affecting the opposition party, which have continued without resolution.
The letter read, “I am writing to notify you of my decision to resign from the Peoples Democratic Party forthwith. This decision did not come lightly; however, it was triggered by the many crises that continue to consume the party.
“The PDP is a victim of ill-bred individuals who unfortunately rose to very lofty heights through the party and eventually turned around to stab it mercilessly.
“These are characters who are bereft of integrity and depth, yet possess an uncanny ability to shamelessly prosecute an evil agenda to liquidate a party that, in its days of glory, was regarded as the biggest party in Africa.”
The letter added that the PDP had been hijacked by some non-committed members who had allegedly turned the party into a “meal ticket.”
“In summary, the PDP is a victim of very opportunistic leadership who merely regard it as a taxi cab that, upon taking them to their desired destination, can be discarded.
“In view of the above, I have since realized that my seemingly irrevocable commitment to the party can, after all, be revoked. Therefore, my membership of the PDP is hereby terminated. I wish the party well,” he concluded.
