Why Former Aviation Minister, Osita Chidoka Dumped PDP

Osita Chidoka, a former Minister of Aviation, has announced his resignation from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

In a resignation letter dated November 29, 2024, addressed to his ward in Anambra State, Chidoka announced his departure from the party, expressing deep respect and gratitude for his time with the PDP.

Osita Chidoka emphasized his commitment to principles of good governance, national unity, and transparent public service.

He stated his intention to focus on his NGO, the Athena Centre, which is dedicated to advancing public policy and leadership in Nigeria.

The letter read, “As I step away from active partisan politics, I remain committed to good governance, national unity, and evidence-based and honest public service. I look forward to a future where I can once again contribute directly to the political landscape, aligned with the values I hold dear.

“I leave the PDP with immense respect and gratitude and wish the party every success as it continues to reposition itself as a force for positive change in Nigeria.

“I conclude with my lifelong mantra: our national aspiration of building a nation where no man is oppressed will be realised sooner rather than later. I remain hopeful of a renascent.

“Nigeria guided by the spirit of Naija—that shared space where ethnicity and religion do not impede our collective aspirations for a great nation.

“Thank you for your understanding and for the support I have received from you and the ward members over the years.”

KanyiDaily recalls that Osita Chidoka recently lost his mother, Victoria Chidoka.
