Chief Dr. George Moghalu, a founding member and former National Auditor of the All Progressives Congress, after months of speculation in a shocking turn of events has officially stepped down from his affiliation with the ruling party.
Chief Dr. George Moghalu played an important role as one of the founding members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Nigeria. He served as the coordinating secretary during the party’s formation through the Merger.
His most recent engagement with the APC happened at the State Youth Wing Conference in Awka, where he made a huge financial contribution to support the Youth Wing.
His resignation was communicated in a letter directed to the chairman of Uruagu Ward 1 in the Nnewi North Local Government Area of Anambra State.
The letter which he titled ‘Resignation of Membership of the APC,’ was also sent to both his state and local government chairmen. This resignation is coming after months of speculation and repeated denials concerning Moghalu’s intentions to leave the party.
While the former Managing Director of the National Inland Waterways Authority did not talk much on his future plans, he mentioned personal reasons for his departure.
In his letter he wrote, “I bring you the good wishes of my dear family and wish to formally notify you of my decision to resign my membership of the APC with effect from today, 26 August 2024.
“Please accept this as my personal decision. It is my utmost desire and expectation that we will continue to maintain the cordial relationship that we have built together over the years.
“I wish you and all the members of the party the very best. Please accept, as always, the assurance of my best regards.”
