Senator T.A. Orji, a.k.a Ochendo
A former governor of Abia State, Senator Theodore Orji, has dumped the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP. Orji, a 2-term governor of Abia, announced this in a letter he addressed to the PDP Ward 1 Chairman in Umuahia North Local Government Area.
According to him, the resignation is with immediate effect. He said the decision came after wide consultations with family and associates. “I write to formally tender my resignation from membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) effective immediately,” the letter read.
Senator Orji, fondly known as Ochendo, expressed gratitude to the party for the platform and opportunities it provided him over the years.
“I appreciate the opportunities and experiences gained during my time as a member of the party. Please accept this letter as a formal notice of my withdrawal from the party,” he added.
Orji is yet to announce his next political destination.
