Hon. Oladimeji cited the current trajectory of the party as the reason for his exit, stressing that it has drifted away from the foundational principles upon which it was built.
“With a heavy heart, I resign from the PDP to find an alternative platform that truly aligns with the people’s ideology. I wish the party and its leadership all the best in the future,” he added.
He further disclosed plans to engage his political supporters across all wards in Ibadan North for a realignment after the August 16th by-election.
