On Friday, July 10, the chairman of All Progressives Congress, APC, in Ondo State’s Ese- Odo Local Government Area, Samuel Olorunwa Ajayi, resigned from his position as chairman as well as being a party member.
This comes less than two weeks to the APC’s governorship primary election in Ondo state.
Ajayi, who tendered his letter of resignation to the secretariat of the party, also announced that he had decamped to the Democratic People’s Party, PDP.
Ajayi is a close ally of Agboola Ajayi, Deputy Governor, who recently dumped APC for PDP. Ajayi was the one who received the Deputy Governor’s resignation letter last month, when he dumped the APC.
Agboola Ajayi is in loggerheads with Ondo State Governor Rotimi Akeredolu, and has shown interest in running against him in October.
