Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party in Ondo State, Kennedy Peretei, has said the party has left the intensive care unit and was heading for the morgue.
Peretei made this known on Wednesday, as he officially resigned from the party.
He said he was leaving as he could no longer remain with those who have no intentions to win elections.
In the resignation letter addressed to the party in Ese-Odo Arogbo Ward 1, in Ese-Odo LGA, Peretei noted that he cherished the privilege to serve the party as the State Financial Secretary of the PDP at its infancy (1999-2003) and served again as State Publicity Secretary, 2020 to date.
“I wish to inform you about my decision to quit the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), as those who claim to be at the leadership of the party have no intention to win any elections, now or in the future,” the letter read in part.
“It is difficult to work with people whose interests are only themselves and how they can use the party to trade every election year.”
Peretei noted that he contributed his quota at every level he served the party, 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 added.
He however did not state which party he will be joining.
