After six months of speculation, former
Senate leader, Victor Ndoma-Egba (SAN), formally resigned his membership of the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) yesterday.
In a resignation letter dated
September 14 and personally signed and addressed to the PDP chairman in his
Akparabong Ward in Ikom local government area of Cross River State, Ndoma-Egba
cited factors which necessitated his exit from the party on which platform he
contested election and was in the Senate for 12 years.
Ndoma-Egba represented Cross River
Central senatorial district in the Senate from 2003 to 2015.
In his resignation letter, he said;
“Hitherto, PDP was strong in Cross River because it offered members an
atmosphere and opportunity for self-expression within its confines. Today,
those values that underline democracy have totally become strange to the
party”.
“I, therefore, resign my membership
of the PDP forthwith and urge you to take the necessary steps to reflect this
in your records”. Full stop
