Since then, I have put my entire team to work on growing and improving the party, including raising the party\u2019s visibility on all media platforms, recruiting more than 10,000 new members to the party, and providing new offices for various state chapters of the party at my expense.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is deeply regrettable that other inducements appear to have played more important roles in determining the outcome of the primary than loyalty to the party.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Presidential aspirant of the African Democratic Congress, Kingsley Moghalu, has resigned his membership from the party.
