My Dear Chairman

LETTER OF RESIGNATION FROM THE PARTY

It is with a dissonant mix of relief and regret that I formally tender my resignation from the Peoples ’ Democratic Party (PDP).

When in 1998, we came together and forged a vehicle destined (as we thought at the time) to carry forward our beloved country ’s hopes and dreams, there was a sense of being on the cusp of something that would endure.

That has not proved to be the case. Since then, a lack of commitment to the purpose and focus of the Founding Fathers of our party and our country has emasculated the PDP.

The party, in its present evolutionary state, has become dysfunctional, unable to articulate a road map and lead
Nigerians on a clear and concise path to national renewal. Faithfulness and fervor have been dissipated by a seamless stream of internecine factional warfare.

I leave behind friends, many with whom I shared sincerity of purpose but, regrettably, no longer share commonality of purpose. They shall in future be friends outside the party
rather than friends within it, but always friends first. Our politics must be big enough for us to differ as we cohabitate.

My former colleagues, I wish you and our beloved country well. For my part, I shall not fail to rise to the challenges and opportunities that the twenty-first century continues to hold out to our country. I shall always be mindful to speak truth to our circumstances and our condition.

Please communicate my resignation to your fellow members of the State Executive Council.

I am happy to remain,

Yours faithfully,

Donald Duke
