Wednesday, October 8, 2025 - A former two-time Senator who represented Edo South senatorial district, Ehigie Uzamere has resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party.
The former senator addressed his resignation letter dated
October 7, 2025 to Mr Osaigbovo Godspower, chairman of ward 12, in Ovia
North-East Local Government Area.
Uzamere was elected on the platform of the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, in his first tenure in 2007 and reelected on the
platform of the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, in 2011.
He said his decision to resign from PDP was driven by
conviction and continued commitment to the service of his people and not by
animosity.
The letter read in part, “Politics, at its best, is a
vehicle for service and representation. A means through which leaders express
their commitment to the welfare of the people.
“However, as the dynamics of the Nigerian political
landscape continue to evolve, I find it necessary to seek a new platform that
aligns more closely with my vision and desire to continue serving my people
effectively.
“In doing so, I remain guided by my philosophy of
Aiguiyekampe politics without bitterness. My decision is driven by conviction,
not animosity, and by a continued commitment to the service of our people,
“I therefore wish to formally tender my resignation from the
People’s Democratic Party (PDP) while expressing my sincere appreciation for
the opportunities and experiences the Party afforded me in the past”, he said.
The former lawmaker, who is an ally of the former Vice
President Atiku Abubakar, was one of the politicians in the state that graced
the inauguration meeting of the African Democratic Congress, ADC.
