According to a former Commissioner for Works and Transport in Ebonyi State, Engr. Chukwuma Nwadugo, in his resignation letter dated 26th May 2022 and addressed to the office of the APC Chairman in Igbeagu Ward III, Nubia Igbeagu in Izzi Local Government Area of Ebonyi State, noting that his resignation from the APC membership was to focus on his other engagement and commended his former party for opportunities given to him under its fold.
Also, Deacon Benjamin Ofoke who confirmed his resignation from the party at his Mgbalukwu Ward II in Izzi Local Government Area of the State said that an official letter dated Tuesday, 31st May 2022 and addressed to the office of the APC Chairman has also been forwarded.
The APC Chieftain in the letter said he decided to resign from being a member of the APC after due consultation with his family, friends and political associates.
The letter reads, “After due consultations with my family, friends and political associates, I Hon Deacon Benjamin Amaechi Ofoke do hereby resign my membership of the party, APC.”
He added that his decision to resign his party membership was to enable him to move on with other things and thanked God and the APC family for the opportunity of being its member over the years.
