Hehe...former Senate President and founding member of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Chief Ken Nnamani, has announced that he is quitting the party “without any iota of bitterness” in his heart.In a statement issued on Saturday, Nnamani said he was leaving the party because it had abandoned “the path ofits noble vision and values”, stressing thathe was fed up with the current status and direction of the
PDP.In the statement entitled, “PDP, the Burden and My Conscience,” the Enugu-born politician said, “I do notbelieve I should continue to be a member of the PDP as it isdefined today.“This is certainly not the party I joined years ago to help change my country. I do not also believe that thePDP as it is managed today will provide anopportunity for me tocontinue to play the politics of principles and values which I setfor myself as a young man on leaving graduate school and workingfor a large multinational in the United States in the 70s and 80s.“Therefore, today I resign my membership of the PDP. In stepping out of partisan politics for the meantime, Iwill continue to be politically engaged. I will also continue to support the government and all the elected officers in Nigeria to repositioning the nation.“I will also constructively criticize tand when by commission or omission they take actions that could damagethe prospects of transforming Nigeria into a productive, merit-based and honestly governed country.”
