Ex-Governorship Candidate In Anambra, Resigns From LP-Valentine Ozigbo
Valentine Ozigbo, a governorship aspirant of the Labour Party (LP) in Anambra, has resigned his membership from the party.
In a statement on Wednesday, Ozigbo, who is aspiring to contest the Anambra governorship election, said his decision to quit the ruling party is in line with his unwavering commitment to the greater vision for the state.
The former chief executive officer (CEO) of Transnational Corporation of Nigeria said he informed Peter Obi, ex-governor of Anambra, of his decision as a “mark of deep respect for his leadership”.
“A few moments ago, at a State Executive Committee meeting of the Labour Party in Awka, in Anambra State, I formally submitted my resignation letter to my ward’s Chairman,” the statement reads.
“Before this, His Excellency Peter Obi was duly informed of my decision as a mark of my deep respect for his leadership and the principles we have shared on this journey. I equally notified the National Chairman.
“At every defining moment in history, our choices shape the future we dream of. Today, as I take a new step in my journey of service, I do so with an unshakable resolve, a clear vision, and the unwavering belief that Anambra’s best days are ahead of us.
“I joined politics not for personal ambition but because I believe in the boundless potential of our people. I believe in a leadership that is compassionate, that inspires, and that truly serves the people. That mission has not changed; it has only become stronger.
“Recent events have made one thing clear: the time has come for us to build something new, something bold, something that speaks to the hopes and aspirations of every Anambra son and daughter.
“That is why, after deep reflection and broad consultations, I have chosen to take a different path, one that is not about party lines, but about our people. About progress. About a movement that will bring real transformation to our great state.”
He contested the 2021 governorship election in Anambra under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and lost to Chukwwuma Soludo, candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA).
Ozigbo, who joined the LP in August 2022, after his departure from the PDP, has yet to disclose which political platform to pitch tent.
When he declared his intention to run for the governorship seat in Anambra in 2024, Ozigbo said he was in the race to save the state from collapsing.
