Onu, a senatorial candidate of the PDP in the February 4, 2024 rerun election for Ebonyi South, conveyed his resignation through

a letter he signed on Wednesday, July 16, 2025, and addressed to his Obiozara Ward chairman.

The former PDP chieftain, in the letter, called on his supporters to also pitch their tent with the ADC for a better political future.

Barr. Onu said he decided to join the newly adopted ADC by the coalition opposition leaders ahead of the 2027 general elections following what he called the interference of a few governors in the affairs of the PDP.

“It’s with a heart, yet for a more patriotic reason, I am resigning my membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) with immediate effect.

“As a member of the Peoples Democratic Party, I served my best in ensuring that the party is well entrenched in our Ward and had the privilege of also serving as State Publicity Secretary before taking the highest party leadership office as the State Chairman in Ebonyi State.

“Additionally, I was graciously elected as the candidate of the party for the Ebonyi South Senatorial bye-election in February, 2024.

“Therefore, this decision didn’t come easily. However, due to some irreconcilable differences, especially the role being played by a few sitting governors of the party, I am compelled to pursue my political aspirations from a different, but a stable platform,” he wrote in the letter.

Onu thanked the party for the unflinching support throughout his membership of the PDP “and pray that we can all journey into the African Democratic Congress (ADC) to continue forging a strong political movement for the overall good of our people.”
