Announcing his resignation from the party, the former financial secretary of the Akwa Ibom state chapter of the PDP and chairman of the state’s Ethical and Attitudinal Reorientation Commission (EARCOM), said the PDP had thrown up economic choristers who had converted the commonwealth into private franchise.

He said: “Having had the privilege of the membership of PDP on whose platform I became the state Financial Secretary, Executive Chairman, EARCOM and later member of the House of Representatives, bespeaks the foundational vision of the progenitors of PDP as a leadership recruitment nursery.
“Today, that party has conducted itself in breach of the visionary philosophy of its founding fathers, instead of intended leadership nursery guided by the principle of social justice and a platform to promote content analysis of its manifesto and implement strategies of its programmes to government as an enabler for good governance, it has rather, thrown up economic choristers and social misdemeanours who have converted our common wealth into private franchise thus turning the party and the state into a behemoth of monstrous proportion.
“Its present system has produced unprecedented crop of political ‘dealers’ instead of inspirational leaders occasioning the increasing deficits in revenue yielding assets and sundry incentives to trigger community growth and prosperity.”
In 2012 the Supreme Court dismissed Eyiboh as the representive of Eket Federal Constituency of Akwa Ibom in the House of Representatives and returned Dan Abia of PDP as the legitimate representative of the constituency.
Delivering judgment, Justice Rodes Vivour held that the respondent, Abia, was the rightful candidate of the party.
