Ahead of the Edo governorship election scheduled for September 21, a member of the Asue Ighodalo Campaign Committee Prince Felix Isuku, has resigned his membership in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Isuku’s resignation was contained in a letter to the party state chairman, secretary, local government chairman and Ward 4 chairman of Owan East LGA.
According to the letter, Isuku said his resignation was due to “high level of a power struggle that started with the fractionalisation and metamorphosed into an unprecedented and unending faction in the party.”
The letter reads in part, “I write to inform you that after extensive consultations with my enlarged political family in Owan constituency in Owan East and Owan West, I have decided to formally resign as a member of the PDP.”
“The reason for my resignation is because of the high level of a power struggle that started with the fractionalisation of the party and metamorphosed into an unprecedented and unending faction or political divide that has continued to affect the internal politics of the party.
“Another reason is the continued megalomaniac attitude of some party leaders, which cannot be ignored”.
Isuku said he had lost interest in the leadership of the party as well as confidence in the ability of the party to win any credible elections.
He said he has worked tirelessly for the PDP using his resources and influence to wholeheartedly support the party, especially during electoral processes.
Isuku’s resignation came barely two days after the State Working Committee led by the state party chairman, Tony Aziegbemi, expelled a former deputy governor of the state, Philip Shaibu, a former House of Representatives member, Omoregie Ogbeide-Ihama and the Vice Chairman South South of the party, Dan Orbih, for anti-party activities.
