Okowa’s Former Aide, Monoyo Edon Resigns Membership Of Delta PDP
Monoyo Edon, a Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, has resigned his membership of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
Edon, announced his resignation on Sunday, in a statement he personally signed and made available to newsmen in Warri, Delta State.
He said that he has officially notified his ward chairman of his resignation from party, blaming his decision on the ‘uncanny reward system and unaccommodating antic of the party to new progressive ideas’.
Edon, who is a protege of former governor, Dr Emmanuel Uduaghan, noted that it is not in his character to remain in a place averse to his progress, contribution and aspiration.
The statement reads; “I write to officially notify the party of my decision to rescind my membership of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) with party registration number 294/04/2022.
I have been a loyal card-carrying member since 2021 and contributed actively to the election which delivered His Excellency, Sheriff F.O Oborevwori as Governor of Delta State and the other 4 elective positions (completing 5/5 in Ward 1) in the 2023 general elections.
It is worthy of mention that I also actively served (briefly) as Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa.
In 2020, I willfully joined the party because I thought it is a platform for young and promising Deltans.
The party allowed room for me to take a shot at the race to the chairmanship ticket of Warri South LGA in the 2024 Delta LGA polls.
However, during and after the contest, I became more familiar with the culture of the party which quite frankly has an uncanny reward system and unaccommodating to new progressive ideas, particularly in Warri South.
It is not in my character to remain in a place averse to my progress, contribution and aspiration.
Let me seize this opportunity to especially thank my leaders -Dcn Victor Agbateyiniro and Mr. Ewetan Okerentie (Former Ward Secretary) for bringing me into the party and also not forgetting other leaders whom I worked with during my time in the PDP.
Thank you!
L. Monoyo Edon.
