A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Olooye Adegboyega Taofeek Adegoke, has resigned his membership of the party, citing the lingering internal crisis affecting the political platform.
Adegoke, a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (FCA), announced his resignation in a letter dated March 2, 2026, and addressed to the Ward 10 Chairman of the party in Ibadan South West Local Government Area.
In the letter, he explained that his decision was informed by what he described as the “intractable political crisis and problems” currently bedevilling the party, which he noted could undermine the political ambitions of members.
According to him, the situation within the party has become increasingly challenging and may hinder members from effectively pursuing their political aspirations.
“I hereby resign my membership of the party with immediate effect,” Adegoke stated in the letter.
Despite his decision to leave the party, the former member expressed gratitude to fellow party members in Ward 10 of the local government area for their support and cooperation during his time in the party.
He also extended his sincere appreciation to members of the ward, acknowledging the relationships and experiences he shared with them while serving under the PDP.
The resignation comes amid ongoing internal challenges within the party in several parts of the country, raising concerns among stakeholders about unity and stability within the opposition party.
