\"PDP<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Ondo State Deputy Governor, Agboola Ajayi has said he would maintain his position despite his resignation from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ajayi dumped the APC on Sunday in Apoi Ward 2, Ese Odo Local Government Area of the state and joined the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)<\/a> in the ward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While tendering his resignation letter from the APC in Apoi Ward 2, Ajayi said that he left the ruling party did not mean he was leaving his position as the state\u2019s deputy governor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said, \u201cMy people that voted for me did not ask me to resign, so I remain the deputy governor of this state. I was duly elected as a deputy governor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe reason I am taking this action is known to all of you. I listen to the advice from all supporters across the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Ese Odo Local Government will continue to witness peace and progress.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ajayi\u2019s dumping of the APC came a day after he was prevented from going out of the government house in Akure, the state capital by the state Commissioner of Police, Mr Bolaji Salami.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
