Daughter of ex- Governor of Delta State, Chief James Ibori, and a member of the House of Representatives, Hon. Erhiatake Ibori-Suenu, who has just resigned from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) says her decision was driven due to her complete exclusion by the state chapter of the Party and the ongoing national leadership crisis, which has divided the Party into implacable camps.
Recall that in a letter dated Thursday, December 5, and addressed to the PDP Chairman of the Ethiope West Council area, Ibori-Suenu cited exclusion by the Delta state chapter of the Party as the reason for her resignation.
The letter, titled “Notice of Resignation of Hon. Erhiatake Ibori-Suenu as Member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP),” stated: “Please be informed that by this notice I formally resign as a member of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) with immediate effect. I surrender my attached People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Membership Card, with membership number 0777144 in furtherance of my complete dissociation and disengagement from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).”
