Former Senator Chukwuka Utazi, who once represented Enugu-North Senatorial District in Enugu State, has decided to part ways with the People’s Democratic Party, citing the fading of the party’s original ideals as his reason.
Senator Utazi, who served the district from 2015 to 2023, officially submitted his resignation to Chief Robert Ezeagu, the PDP Chairman in Nkpologu Ward of the Uzo-Uwani Local Government Area on a Sunday.
In his resignation letter, he expressed his deep reservations, explaining that he had been a founding member of the People’s Democratic Party since its establishment in 1998.
However, the ideals that initially drew him to the party have gradually diminished, leaving him with no alternative but to seek a new political platform where he can actively engage and contribute to national development.
While he refrained from disclosing his future political plans, Senator Utazi wished his former party members well in their pursuit of livelihoods amidst the current circumstances and expressed his gratitude for their understanding and cooperation.
