The resignation was contained in a letter personally signed by Udi and addressed to the party’s ward chairman in Ringim on Thursday, a copy of which was obtained by DAILY POST. In the letter, the former council chairman said his decision came after extensive consultations with his supporters and a thorough assessment of the situation within the party. “I hereby formally resign my membership of the APC with immediate effect,” he stated. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1524595905268-5'); }); Udi explained that the move was not made lightly, noting that it was prompted by concerns over what he described as a shift away from the party’s founding ideals. According to him, recent developments at the local, state, and national levels have made it increasingly difficult for him to remain aligned with the party’s current direction. He, however, expressed gratitude for the opportunities he enjoyed while in the APC and wished the party success in its future activities. Although Udi did not disclose his next political move, some of his supporters have been urging him to join the African Democratic Congress (ADC), a decision he has yet to publicly confirm.
