Orji Uzor Kalu Resigns From PPA, The Party He Formed With His Money by zoba88: 7:49am On Nov 16, 2016
Eminent businessman and former governor of Abia State, Dr. Orji Kalu has resigned his membership of the Progressive Peoples Alliance (PPA). The former governor said he took the decision after wide consultations with political associates, followers, loyalists and well-wishers.

This was contained in a November 14, 2016 letter he personally signed and addressed to the national chairman of the party.

The letter was made available to the media yesterday: “It is with a heavy heart, full of precious memories, profound appreciation and goodwill that I write to inform you of my decision to quit my membership of the PPA.

“As a founding member of the PPA, in 2006 and a former chairman of the BoT, I have been fortunate to have witnessed first hand, the growth of a party that grew out of the yearning of a people to challenge their intuition and their struggle to determine who governs them and how they should be governed.

“I gave to the PPA and that struggle the better part of my political life and the time has come for me to say thank you for the opportunity to have served a worthy cause, and to have been your flag bearer as candidate for the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“I must move on now and as Tennyson reminds us, “Though much has been taken, much still abides and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will. To strive, to seek, to find and not to yield.

“And so, today, I officially resign my membership.
Thank you and may God continue to guide the affairs of the PPA under your reign as national chairman.’’

PPA which was founded by Kalu in 2006, produced Chief T. A Orji and Chief Ikedi Ohakim as governors of Abia and Imo states respectively in the 2007 polls.

Very shameless man. Your mates are positioning their new party in national level and you're dying yours.

Why even form it in first place when you know too well you'll be unable to steer it to National level.
Robbery has taken your focus. Unarmed robbery. Political corruption.

You and TA Orji will pay, with your lives or otherwise. Ediota's.

I was taught in Humanities back in school that

"Man is a selfish animal"

but the way Nigerian Politicians are, their selfishness is on a different level.

There's a saying 'A sailor always goes down with his ship when it's going to sink', this man knows his party is going extinct, it has no relevance in Nigeria as of now and hence.. This man deserves to be rejected by all parties he might want to join and all Nigerians..

Collectively we agree that politics and politicians are the bane of our society yet we pretentiously condemn Nigeria Politicians but still shamefully shower praises, and aspire to be like them (Looters) and even bigger than them for reasons still yet not known. From the comments on twitter you can see that Nigerians celebrate powerful people and political parties but not powerful legacies or the men behind it.
As for Mr Kalu, in Wakanda Accent "I don't care". It's (politicians and their parties) the only news we hear daily and for decades to come. After all the only natural resources w behave in this country is POLITICS.
