Moments after his resignation from the All Progressives Congress, APC, on Sunday, the Deputy Governor of Ondo State, Mr Agboola Ajayi has dismissed the insinuation that he will resign from the cabinet of Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu.
Tendering his resignation letter at the APC Secretariat in Apoi Ward 2, Ese Odo Local Government, Ajayi said everybody knew why he left the APC. He stated that, he was elected by the people, and he is still serving their mandate.
Speaking shortly after picking his PDP membership card, Agboola said he only resigned as APC member and not as the deputy governor of the state
“I am here to officially announce to you that as from today, I ceased to be a member of the APC. I came to tender my resignation letter to the ward chairman.
“It is a painful thing that I’m leaving the APC but there is time for everything. As a Nigerian, I have the fundamental freedom to belong to any party or group.
“The people who voted me did not ask me to resign, so I remain the deputy governor of this state. I was duly elected as a deputy governor,” he said.
