Weeks after losing the ticket to represent the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) at the forthcoming Governorship election in Ondo State, the Deputy Governor of Ondo State, Hon. Agboola Ajayi, has resigned from the PDP.
Ajayi left the PDP after he was cleared by the National Executive Committee of the Zenith labour Party (ZLP) to contest in the primary
He told his supporters through his Media Adviser, Allen Sowore, that his next line of action would be announced soon.
Meanwhile, the PDP has said that Ajayi’s exit would not affect the party’s victory at the Governorship election on October 10.
The Publicity Secretary of the PDP in Ondo State, Kennedy Ikantu Peretei, said in a statement that the Ajayi was desperate to become Governor.
“In the days to come, it will dawn on him that, he has squandered whatever was remaining in his good will with this decision.
“However, this exit from the PDP will not affect our prospects of winning the October Gubernatorial Elections this year. The PDP remains solid, strong and more determined than ever before to win the forthcoming governorship elections with a credible and competent candidate in the person of Eyitayo Jegede, SAN,” Peretei said.
