The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Edo State has continued to suffe significant setbacks as three prominent members, Hon. (High Chief) Abas Momoh Jega, Hon. Seggy Ihama, and Hon. Kemi Aimufua, have resigned from the party, citing various concerns about its current state.
Hon. (High Chief) Abas Momoh Jega, a distinguished legal practitioner and consultant, announced his resignation in a formal letter addressed to the PDP Chairman in Ward 8, Iddo-Okpella, Etsako East Local Government Area.
Chief Jega attributed his decision to extensive consultations with his family, friends, followers, and constituents.
He expressed deep dissatisfaction with the party’s direction under new leadership since 2020, criticizing a decline in discipline and respect within the ranks.
Recalling his pivotal role in the 2020 governorship campaign, Jega highlighted unfulfilled promises and a growing sense of deceit within the party.
He also expressed gratitude to the party’s past leaders who have worked tirelessly since 1998 to build the PDP.
In a related development, Hon. Seggy Ihama, former Chairman of Ovia South West Local Government Area and former State Secretary of the PDP in Edo State, also resigned from the party.
Ihama’s resignation letter pointed to dissatisfaction with the current leadership, accusing it of arrogance and unilateral decision-making.
His departure underscored ongoing internal tensions and a lack of cohesion within the PDP’s Edo State chapter.
Furthermore, Hon. Kemi Aimufua, former Chairperson of Ovia South West, former aspirant for the Edo State House of Assembly (2015), Leader of Siluko Ward, and Assistant Woman Leader (LGA), announced her resignation from the PDP.
In her letter addressed to the PDP Chairman of Edo State, Aimufua cited ongoing internal conflicts as the primary reason for her departure, expressing concern over the potential negative impact these disputes could have on the party’s future in the state.
These resignations highlight significant internal challenges within the PDP in Edo State, signaling a need for reflection and potential restructuring to address the concerns of its members.
