Former President of the Senate, David Mark, has tendered his resignation from the Peoples Democratic Party PDP.
Mark, a founding member of the PDP, resigned from the party following his appointment as one of the interim leaders of the coalition-backed African Democratic Congress ADC.
Announcing his resignation, the former Senate President, in a statement dated June 27 and signed by him, cited the leadership crisis in the PDP as the main reason for his resignation.
He stated that the irreconcilable differences in the PDP have subjected the party to public ridicule and reduced it to a shadow of its former self.
You may recall that over the years, I have remained firm and deeply committed to the ideals of the PDP. Even when nearly all stakeholders departed the party following our loss in the 2015 presidential election, I pledged to remain the last man standing.
