Imo: Why Amadi, Action Alliance Party’s Publicity Secretary, Quit Office, Party

By Charles Igbo

Accomplished writer, activist, and fledging politician, Comrade Salvator Amadi, has quit his position as the Publicity Secretary of the Action Alliance Party, AA Imo State Chapter. Amadi has also quit his membership of the Party.

His exit from the little-known Party in the State came days after the very abysmal performance of the Party’s Governorship Candidate, Major General Lincoln Ogunewe, rtd, in the November 11, 2023, Governorship Election.

Ogunewe was in the group of the “also ran”. He made little or no impact.

In his resignation letter dated 23/11/2023,  and addressed to Ifeanyi Okponwa Eze,  Amadi said he quit because of the sorry state of affairs in the Party, especially, over “the absence of synergy between the Party Leadership and the Campaign Organization since he assumed office.”

Following, his resignation letter.

“RESIGNATION AS PUBLICITY SECRETARY OF IMO STATE ACTION ALLIANCE (AA)”

“I write to inform you that the state of affairs in Imo State Chapter of Action Alliance (AA),  especially the absence of synergy between the Party Leadership and the Governorship Campaign Organisation since I assumed the position of State Publicity Secretary in the third week of September, 2023 till yesterday Wednesday 22nd November, 2023, has necessitated my decision to tender my resignation both as State Publicity Secretary and Member of the party with effect from today.

“As a Leadership Activist committed to the fight for a better Nigeria administered not by Politicians but Leaders guided by the Media which is now the last hope of the common man, given the failure of the Executive, Legislative and Judicial arms of Government at all levels, one lesson learnt during my brief sojourn in partisan politics is that the Nigerian political turf is not for people like me till power is wrested from Politicians and the Fourth Estate of the Realm, the Media, takes full control.

“Until such a time comes, I wish Imolites and Nigerians better times than they have been subjected to by the machinations of Politicians.

Yours sincerely,

Comr. Salvator Amadi”
The Governorship Election in the State was won by the incumbent Governor, Senator Hope Uzodimma, in an unprecedented landslide.
