Senator Ned Nwoko Resigns From PDP And Joins APC Amid Deep Factional Divisions

After months of speculation, Senator Ned Nwoko, representing the Delta North Senatorial District in the National Assembly, has officially resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and joined the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Nwoko cited the deep divisions and factionalization within the PDP as the main reasons for his departure, emphasizing that the growing factions had become irreconcilable.

In a letter addressed to the Chairman of the PDP in Ward 8, Aniocha North Local Government Area, Delta State, Nwoko made his resignation public. The letter read:

“I write to formally resign from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), a party I have been proud to serve as a founding member since 1999.

“My decision to resign stems from the deep divisions and factionalization within the party, which have made it increasingly difficult to unite and pursue the collective interests of our people.

“Just this week, on January 29, top party functionaries sank to the lowest levels, engaging in physical altercations due to these irreconcilable factions.

“I am also grateful for the platform the PDP gave me to contest the 2022/2023 senatorial election, which allowed me to engage directly with the people of my constituency and present my vision for a brighter future.

“However, during my campaign, I made solemn and actionable promises to my constituents—commitments I take seriously as a servant of the people.

“Unfortunately, the current structure of the party in our state has hindered my ability to fulfill these promises. After careful consideration, I have concluded that stepping away from the party is necessary to honor my obligations to my people.

“While I bid farewell to my membership in the PDP, I assure all party members and my constituents of my unwavering commitment to statesmanship, unity, and the advancement of Delta North.

“My decision is rooted in the best interest of those I serve, and I remain committed to the progress and prosperity of our state and nation.”
