Former Ogun governor, Gbenga Daniel resigns membership of PDP, quits partisan politics

A former Governor of Ogun State, Otunba Gbenga Daniel, has expressed his intention to quit his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as well as involvement in partisan politics. 

The former governor made his intention known in a letter dates 14th of March, 2019 and addressed to the National Chairman of the party, Prince Uche Secondus. 

Daniel in the letter said the decision to quit partisan politics was personal to him.

Recall that the former governor was the Director-General of Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign Organization before the former Vice President emerged as the presidential candidate of the PDP in the election conducted a few weeks ago.

“This is to inform you of my intention to resign from active and partisan politics with effect from today, the 14th day of March, 2019

My decision in this regard is entirely personal to me and having served in various capacities, including as Governor of Ogun State, I have resolved to immerse myself in some other vocations and take on some new challenges,” he said in the letter.
