PDP’s Senator Fadahunsi quits party
The senator representing Osun East, Francis Fadahunsi, has resigned his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party.
Mr Fadahunsi said this in a letter dated June 12, addressed to the chairman of the party in Ward 4, Obokun LGA.
In the letter on Saturday, the lawmaker said he resigned due to irreconcilable differences and unresolved legal crises within the party since the 2023 general elections.
The letter said, “I wish to formally notify you that I am resigning my membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) with immediate effect, due to the irreparable, irreconcilable differences and protracted legal battles that have bedevilled the party at the national level after the 2023 general elections.
“This was concluded after consultation and engagement with my political associates, family, and friends. It is my wish that you accept my resignation in good faith.”
When contacted, the legislative assistant to the senator, Femi Fadipe, confirmed the resignation of his principal from PDP.
Mr Fadipe said that Mr Fadahunsi tried his best to keep the party going but with no headway. He said the lawmaker and his supporters would announce their next move soon.
