Senator Ned Nwoko, representing Delta North Senatorial District in the National Assembly, has resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), citing internal divisions and factional conflicts as the reasons for his departure.
In a resignation letter dated January 30, Nwoko expressed frustration over the party’s deepening crisis.
“My decision to resign is first and foremost due to the deep divisions and factionalization within the party. This fragmentation has made it increasingly difficult to foster unity and advance the collective interests of our people,”Nwoko said.

He said a recent incident that exposed the extent of the discord within the party. “Just this week, precisely on the 29th of January, the top party functionaries degenerated to the lowest levels by physically fighting each other, arising from the stated factions, which have become irreconcilable,”he said.
Nwoko acknowledged the platform the PDP provided him during the 2022/2023 senatorial elections but argued that the party’s current structure in Delta State has hindered his ability to fulfill campaign promises.
“Regrettably, the current structure of the party in our state has not been conducive to realizing these promises. After careful consideration, I have come to the conclusion that stepping away from the party is necessary to fulfill my obligations to my people,” he added.
