Protest For Wike: PDP Northeast Zonal Treasurer Resigns, Dumps Party
By Adeleye Kunle
Galadima Abba Itas, Northeast zonal treasurer of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has resigned from office and defected from the party, effective Tuesday, July 12th.
Galadima Abba simply wrote to the Ward Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Itas Ward in Bauchi State’s Itas/Gadau Local Government Area, “I write to tender my resignation as Zonal Treasurer (North-East) and a member of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).”
“My resignation was as a result of wide consultations with my teeming supporters, political associates, and in response to the unfair and unjust treatment extended to His Excellency, Barr Nyesom Ezenwo Wike CON, the Executive Governor of Rivers State during and after the presidential primary convention,” he said in the letter.
“Equally, His Excellency, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa’s unorthodox selection as running mate to the presidential candidate contradicts my political principles and ideologies, thus further consolidated my resignation decision,” he wrote.
“As a critical stakeholder, unjust and unfair treatment of founding members posed a great threat to our leaders’ and our collective political interests, necessitating my resignation in protest of the ways things are unfolding in the Party,” he wrote.
“However, the current situation in the party does not inspire confidence that the party is ready to regain power in 2023,” Galadima Abba writes. I am grateful for the opportunity to serve with passion and dedication. Please accept my heartfelt and warm regards.”
