Mr. Valentine Ozigbo, a former candidate for governor of Anambra State in the Labour Party, has left the party.

In keeping with his unflinching dedication to the state’s larger goal, Ozigbo, who is running for governor of Anambra State, announced he resigned from the party.

Many believe he is going to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to fulfill his desire, even if he did not reveal his future course of action.

The previous CEO of Transnational Corporation, commonly referred to as Transcorp, signed the following press release: “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.

“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.”

According to sources, the candidate, who represented the PDP in the most recent governorship race and had Mr. Peter Obi’s support, had recently lost his favor and was afraid that, as the national leader of the LP, Obi might not support his candidacy.

After leaving his previous party, the PDP, Ozigbo joined Peter Obi’s Labour party in 2022 and remained loyal to Obi throughout.
