The Publicity Secretary of the Ondo State Chapter of the People Democratic Party (PDP), Kennedy Peretei, has resigned from the party.
Peretei made this disclosure via a statement he issued and made public in Akure, the state capital.
In the statement titled, ‘I Quit As The PDP In Ondo State Leaves The Intensive-Care Unit For The Morgue,’ the politician revealed that those who claim to be the leaders of the party have no intention to win elections now or in the future.
He said, “It is difficult to work with people whose interests are only themselves and how they can use the party to trade every election year.
“I wish to inform you about my decision to quit the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), as those who claim to be in the leadership of the party have no intention to win any elections, now or in the future.
It is difficult to work with people whose interests are only themselves and how they can use the party to trade every election year.”
He explained that he has made various contributions to the party at every opportunity, lamenting that the leaders of the party have brought it down.
“I was privileged to serve as the State Financial Secretary of the PDP in its infancy (1999-2003) and served again as State Publicity Secretary, 2020 to date. I contributed my quota at every level.
“But the same people who have held the party hostage, making it impossible to win elections in the last three election cycles have tightened their grip on a party that laid prostrate at the Intensive Care Unit. The PDP in Ondo State is now on its way to the morgue,” he said.
“For those who depend on election funds and party patronage to run their families, I admonish them to seek second addresses so that they can live more meaningful lives than that of political bandits, Almajaris or just ‘Yes’ men.” he concluded
