Former Governor of Ogun State, Gbenga Daniel has officially informed the Peoples Democratic Party, of his decamping to the ruling All Progressives Congress.
Daniel admitted that he was captured by the APC after visitations from the party’s Chairman of the Caretaker Committee, Governor of Yobe state, Mai Mala Buni and other governors.
The former campaign manager for PDP’s ex-Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, revealed that he was swayed by his support for Governor Dapo Abiodun.
”Dear Friends & Colleagues, pardon my short notice in informing you of my route to the APC which as you might have suspected started with my supporting Governor, Dapo Abiodun during the last election.
”I have since experienced an avalanche of encouragement to come on board.
“However in the last 48 hours, things took a dizzying speed with the decision of the APC National Chairman’s request to visit me at Asoludero on Wednesday with about 3 Governors. While planning for the visit, Governor Abiodun also decided to visit me later today with another set of Governors. It, therefore, means that I have finally been ‘captured’.
“I thought I should quickly brief the house before the news goes viral. Thanks for your understanding,” he said in a statement.
