Olisa Metuh, a former National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has announced his resignation from the party.
Metuh’s resignation was contained in a letter he sent to the PDP national chairman, Senator Iyochia Ayu, dated October 25 and sighted by POLITICS NIGERIA.
“During my three weeks trip for medical and personal reasons, I came to the realisation that I can no longer play partisan politics in Nigeria,” Metuh’s letter reads.
“The reason for this decision is that from my experience and the nature of politics and development in Nigeria, I believe that I will contribute more to democracy and good governance in Nigeria by being non-partisan.
“Being non-partisan gives me the status to work for the strategic interest and well-being of the Nigerian people without the hindrance of partisanship.
“In that regard, I write respectfully, to formally inform you of my resignation from the PDP and cessation of partisan politics.”
