Former National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Kola Ologbondiyan, has announced his departure from the party.
Ologbondiyan made the revelation in a post on his X account on Saturday morning.
The former PDP spokesman revealed that he had notified the PDP chairman of his Okekoko Ward 09 in Kabba/Bunu Local Government, Kogi State, of his decision to leave the party, citing personal reasons for his exit.
The copy of the letter which he shared on his X handle, titled “NOTIFICATION OF MEMBERSHIP WITHDRAWAL,” partly reads,
“Let me start by thanking you as well as other levels of leadership in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the opportunities provided for me to serve the party as well as our fatherland, Nigeria.
“It is now imperative to bring your attention to the fact that I have reviewed my participation in the PDP and come to the conclusion that, for personal reasons, I need to make my exit.
“I have therefore come to a decision to formally withdraw my membership of the PDP, henceforth.”
Beyond his role as the former National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Ologbondiyan also previously served as a media aide to David Mark, the current Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), during Mark’s time as Senate President. The Kogi-born journalist has yet to reveal the political party he intends to join following his exit from the PDP.
