PCRN: Announced Resignation of 128 Members Sparks Controversy as Names Are Disputed

A collective letter circulated on November 3, 2026, claims that 128 PCRN members from the Northern Region are resigning and sets out their disagreements with national president Cabral Libii. They criticize his stance during the 2025 presidential election, his position on creating a vice-presidential post, and his handling of the controversy over 21,000 election records, accusing the party of becoming a “sham opposition.” PCRN members and officials have challenged the authenticity of the list; in Lagdo, one member said he did not recognize some of the names. The dispute has cast doubt on the announced figure of 128 departures.
