Cyril Maduabum, the former director-general of the Governors’ Forum and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has left the party for the African Democratic Congress (ADC), the opposition alliance.

In a statement announcing his retirement, Maduabum said he was deeply disappointed in the PDP’s current status, a party he claimed to have served with pride in the past.

The two-term House of Representatives member charged that the party has been taken over by self-interested individuals who put their own power before of internal democracy, party discipline, and the interests of the country.

“The PDP is now a shadow of its former self, plagued by chaos, internal betrayal, and systematic destruction orchestrated by forces with no regard for the principles of its founding fathers,” the immediate past DG of the PDP Governors’ Forum added.

Speaking on his transfer to the ADC, Maduabum characterized the party as a ray of hope for inclusive politics, responsible leadership, honesty, and accountability.

“After deep reflection, extensive consultations, and careful evaluation of the current political realities within the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), I have taken the difficult but necessary decision to resign my membership of the PDP with immediate effect.

“As a committed democrat, a two-term member of the House of Representatives, and former Director-General of the PDP Governors’ Forum, I have dedicated significant portions of my political life to building the PDP as a platform for democratic consolidation and national development.

“However, the soul of the party I once served with pride has been hijacked by self-serving, unscrupulous elements who are more interested in personal power grabs than in party discipline, internal democracy, or national interest,” the statement read.
