Osun Senator Fadeyi Quits PDP Over Party Crisis

The representative of Osun Central Senatorial District in the National Assembly, Senator Oluwole Fadeyi, has officially resigned from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), citing irreconcilable differences and deepening divisions within the party.

In a letter dated June 12, 2025, and addressed to the PDP Chairman in Ward 3, Oke-Ejigbo, Ila-Orangun LGA, Osun State, Senator Fadeyi stated that his decision took immediate effect and was the result of prolonged discontent with internal party conflicts.

“I wish to formally notify you that I am resigning my membership of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) with immediate effect,” the letter stated.

He pointed to “irreconcilable difference and irreparable division” within the PDP, including ongoing legal battles and what he described as a fractured national structure.

“These have emerged and [led to] court cases and counter court cases in the last three years, which has created faction in the party at the national level,” the senator explained.

Senator Fadeyi emphasised that his decision was not taken lightly but followed “consultation and engagement with my political associates, family and friends.”

He concluded by thanking the party leadership in advance for accepting his resignation.

The letter was also copied to the National Chairman of the PDP, the State Chairman of the party, and the the party’s chairman in Ila-Orangun LGA of Osun State.
