Barely one month to Obong Victor Attah's 77th birthday, the former governor of Akwa Ibom State has announce his retirement from partisan politics. He said henceforth he will be
contributing his quota as an elder stateman to serve in the development of the
state and nation, stressing that he does not need to be a card carrying member
to so.
According to him; “I have always insisted that I was in government position in politics
and not a professional or career politician so I can boldly say that I have
quit partisan politics to play the role of an elder stateman”
Speaking on the fracas with PDP, the former governor made it clear that his utterances did not amount to
anti-party activity but was bore out of his concerns about the party’s
activities.
