PDP In Turmoil As Dr. Michael Nwoko Resigns, Cites Corruption, Betrayal, Expresses Loyalty To Senator Nwoko

The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Delta State has suffered yet another major setback following the resignation of Dr. Michael Nwoko, a political heavyweight and Chief of Staff to Senator Prince Ned Munir Nwoko.

His departure, laden with scathing criticism, exposes deep-seated dysfunction within the party and signals an impending political shift in Aniocha North local government area of Delta State and beyond.

In a resignation letter addressed to the PDP Ward 8 Chairman, Aniocha North LGA, Dr. Nwoko did not mince words.

He condemned the party’s leadership for straying from its democratic ideals, accusing them of exploitation, suppression, and a blatant disregard for loyalty.

His decision, he emphasized, was not made in haste but after “deep introspection and a critical assessment” of the party’s declining trajectory.

For over two decades, Dr. Nwoko stood as a pillar of the PDP, navigating its political landscapes with integrity and dedication.

Yet, instead of reciprocity, he found himself disillusioned by a system that had become a breeding ground for opportunism.

Dr. Michael Nwoko who expressed loyalty to Senator Ned Nwoko, said: “The party has weaponized its structures for personal aggrandizement” while systematically sidelining individuals committed to genuine progress.

His departure sends a strong message, not just of dissatisfaction but of a clear rejection of a party that has, in his view, lost its ideological foundation.

The once formidable PDP, which thrived on inclusivity and a vision for collective growth, now stands accused of fostering internal contradictions and suppressing political aspirations.

Dr. Nwoko’s resignation has ignited a political storm in Delta State. Speculations are rife, will he align with another party? Could this be the beginning of a mass exodus of disgruntled PDP stalwarts?

With his close ties to Senator Ned Nwoko and his extensive political influence, his next move could have far-reaching consequences.

For Dr. Nwoko, this decision is not about personal gain but about principles.

“I cannot, in good conscience, remain within a structure that has lost its ideological bearing,” he declared, making it clear that his political journey would continue, but on a different path, one that aligns with his vision for true progress.

As the PDP grapples with the shockwaves of his exit, one thing is certain: this is not just a resignation; it is a loud statement against a broken system.

And if history has taught us anything, it is that when leaders of conviction walk away, revolutions begin.
