Godwin Owulo, a prominent figure in Benue State’s political landscape, has resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). The immediate past Zonal Chairman of the PDP in Benue South Senatorial District announced his decision in a letter dated 15 October 2025, addressed to the Chairman of the PDP’s Ukpa‑Aniu‑Ette Council Ward in Oju Local Government Area. Citing personal reasons, Owulo formally declared his exit, writing, “I, Hon. Chief Sir Godwin Owulo, the Immediate Past Zonal Chairman, People’s Democratic Party, Benue South Senatorial District, this day, the 15th of Oct. 2025, hereby resign my membership of the People’s Democratic Party. The reason is personal. Wishing you well.”
Following his resignation, Owulo confirmed that he will join the African Democratic Congress (ADC), ending his long‑standing association with the PDP in Benue State. As a key figure in the PDP’s grassroots mobilization efforts in Benue South, his departure is significant. Owulo’s experience and influence in his home area of Oju Local Government made him a valuable asset to the party, and his move is likely to impact the political dynamics of the Benue South Senatorial District.
The decision to join the ADC reflects broader shifts in Nigeria’s political landscape. The ADC has been gaining momentum recently, and Owulo’s addition is expected to bolster the party’s presence in Benue State. As the political scene continues to evolve, his move will be closely watched by analysts and stakeholders in the region.
Owulo’s resignation from the PDP and subsequent alignment with the ADC underscore the dynamic nature of Nigerian politics. As the country navigates its complex political terrain, the choices of influential figures like Owulo can have far‑reaching consequences. Attention will now focus on how his departure affects the PDP’s fortunes in Benue State and the wider implications for Nigeria’s political landscape.
