The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), chairman of Ward 8 in Aniocha North local government area of Delta State, Comrade Clement Chiazor, has confirmed receipt of Senator Ned Nwoko’s resignation from the party, adding, however, that the lawmaker is a serial defector.
Nwoko recently left PDP for the All Progressive Congress (APC), citing the crisis rocking his former party.
Chiazor described the defection from PDP to APC as laughable and inconsequential because the party had never been affected by Nwoko.
The party chairman described Nwoko as a serial defector and chronicled his movements over the years. He added that his leaving the PDP at this time would have no effect on the party as was the case in the past.
He called on members of the party in the ward to remain united and not to be bothered or distracted by Nwoko’s defection.
“Yesterday, I received a resignation letter from Senator Ned Nwoko leaving the PDP.
PDP Ward 8 is an indivisible, formidable and united big family. Let’s not be distracted.
“Senator Nwoko left PDP to APGA in 2003 to contest for the governorship position and PDP didn’t die. Rather, it remains more stronger and united until he later found his way back to PDP again.
“In 2011, Senator Ned Nwoko left PDP again to DPP to contest for Senate position and PDP didn’t collapse but rather remained more flourishing until he Ned Nwoko found his way back to PDP for the second time.
“In 2023, PDP came to our rescue and gave Senator Ned Nwoko mandate to represent the good people of Delta North Senatorial District in the Red Chamber. Just barely one year and a few months as a Senator, he has left the party again to APC. (Laughable)
“Therefore, we urge our teeming supporters to remain focused, be formidable, loyal, faithful, and committed to the party, PDP. Let us not be distracted. It pays to be loyal, for every worker has a payday” Chiazor said.
