Metuh Resigns From PDP, Dumps Politics

Erstwhile national publicity secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Olisa Metuh, has resigned his membership of the party saying he can no longer involve himself in politics in Nigeria.

Metuh gave the signal in a letter he addressed to the national chairman, Dr Iyorchia Ayu and and his ward chairman in Nnewi, Anambra State.

GWG.NG reports that Metuh who is about the longest serving national executive officer of the party having been returned successively since the inauguration of the first NEC into different positions has lately been immersed in evangelical works and notably prison outreaches.

Metuh in his letter dated October 26, 2022 titled the letter: “Resignation From The PDP” said he would dedicate his time to contributing to the good governance of Nigerian without playing partisan politics.

He said:

“During my three weeks trip for medical and personal reasons, I came to the realization that I can no longer play partisan politics in Nigeria. 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 a 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.

“I have duly enjoyed my membership of the PDP and remain proud of being the longest elected member of the National Executive Committee, one who won election to serve in several national positions at six (6) consecutive National Conventions of the Party. I will cherish the values and ideals learnt from the founding fathers at the inception of our nascent democracy.

“Any future participation in politics will only be limited to non-partisan involvements in areas of sustaining and deepening democracy and governance in Nigerian and at the global level.

“I pray you continue to insist on issue-based engagement in our political space as the country cannot afford the bitterness and divisions that may arise otherwise.

“In line with the constitution of the PDP, I have forwarded a copy of my resignation to my ward Chairman. May God bless us all.”
