Former Minister of State for Petroleum, Timipre Sylva, has resigned from the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, with immediate effect.
Sylva, in his resignation letter, dated August 31, 2026, addressed to The Chairman, APC Ward 4, Brass LGA, Bayelsa State, lamented that it is deeply saddening to witness how the ideals they espoused in the formation of the APC have been thoroughly and unrecognizably thwarted.
“I cannot, in all good conscience, continue to belong to a Party whose leaders believe that “all is fair in politics; and have consistently demonstrated that belief in practice. All cannot be fair in any endeavor of life. The demands of basic decency and morality forbid it. Unfortunately, this mentality appears to underpin virtually every action, and even inaction, of this administration,” Sylva declared.
