Erhiatake Ibori-Suenu, daughter of former Delta State Governor James Ibori has given reasons why she left the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) for the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports Erhiatake dumped the PDP and joined the APC as announced by the Speaker of the Nigerian House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Tajudeen Abbas on Thursday.
Erhiatake, who represents Ethiope West federal constituency of Delta State in the House of Representatives, explained that her resignation from the PDP was due to her complete exclusion by the State chapter of the party.
In a letter dated Thursday, December 5, and addressed to the PDP Chairman of the Ethiope West Council area, she also cited the ongoing national leadership crisis, which she said has divided the party into implacable camps.
The letter, titled “Notice of Resignation of Hon. Erhiatake Ibori-Suenu as Member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)” reads: “Please be informed that by this notice I formally resign as a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) with immediate effect.
“I surrender my attached Peoples Democratic Party [PDP] Membership Card, with membership number 0777144 in furtherance of my complete dissociation and disengagement from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)”.
