Ondo State deputy governor, Agboola Ajayi, has resigned his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Agboola Ajayi defected from the APC to the PDP earlier this year due to his running battle with his principal and governor of the state, Rotimi Akeredolu. He contested for the PDP governorship ticket but lost to Eyitayo Jegede.
Agboola confirmed his resignation in a statement released by his Special Assistant on Media, Allen Sowore. In the letter, he appreciated the national leadership and members of the party for their warm reception and acceptance in the short period he rejoined the party.
