The Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, has said his success as the leader of Canada was a result of the support of his family.
Naija News reported that the Liberal Party former leader announced his resignation on Monday.
In a statement transcribed by Naija News, Trudeau said he would not be the best candidate for his party ahead of the next general election.
He also disclosed that he had told the president of his party to begin the process of selecting another leader of the Liberal Party.
Trudeau added that his internal battles were responsible for his resignation.
“I’ve also had a chance to reflect and have had long talks with my family about our future. Throughout the course of my career, any success I have personally achieved has been because of their support and with their encouragement.
“So last night over dinner, I told my kids about the decision that I’m sharing with you today. I intend to resign as party leader, as prime minister, after the party selects its next leader through a robust, nationwide, competitive process.
“Last night, I asked the president of the Liberal Party to begin that process. This country deserves a real choice in the next election, and it has become clear to me that if I’m having to fight internal battles, I cannot be the best option in that election,” Trudeau said.
