Peter Obi explains why he left APGA and PDP

Peter Obi, former Governor of Anambra State and current leader of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), has clarified why he departed from both the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Obi shared his perspective during an interview on News Central TV.

He said that his political choices are driven by principles rather than personal gain.

“Some men change parties because of their principles, some others change their principles for the sake of their party,” Obi remarked.

“So for me, I changed party because I’ve been in a system where you can see that it is no longer what you believe in…what you want to practice.”

“I left APGA because I was forced to leave. I left PDP because of my principles.”

“You cannot say you’re going into a destination but the process of going there has compromised your principles.”
