Why would he admit to such a thing in such a public way. Why not just say “for personal reasons” and leave it at that? Very strange.

This fits - He was being blackmailed by the affair. So he resigns as requested, then lets everyone know that he will not go quietly in the night. He is ready to sing like a canary ?

Can’t help but wonder just how long the affair went on before he decided that it was “unacceptable in a leader”?
