Peter Obi Resigns Peoples Democratic Party’s Membership Ahead of Presidential Primaries

The former Governor of Anambra State and the Presidential aspirant under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Peter Gregory Obi on Tuesday announced he has resigned his membership due to recent developments that made it impossible to continue to participate and contribute to nation-building.

In a letter obtained by Investors King, the former governor cum entrepreneur submitted his resignation letter on Friday, May 20, 2022 to the Chairman of Agulu Ward 2. Anaocha LGA Anambra.

He said “I am by this letter informing you of my withdrawal from the PDP Presidential Primaries.

“It has been a great honour to contribute to nation-building efforts through our party. Unfortunately, recent developments within our party make it practically impossible to continue participating and making such constructive contributions.

“Our national challenges are deep-seated and require that we each make profound sacrifices towards rescuing our country. My commitment to rescuing Nigeria remains firm, even if the route differs.”

By ‘even if the route differs’, the vibrant politician may be suggesting pitching his tent with another party that shares his political ideologies for national building.
