His tweets below,

 

I have resigned from PDP and from partisan politics. I did that in writing, no ambiguities. A meeting was held today and the meeting was reported with the request of my people. There was no ambiguity.

 

I listened carefully to them and I permitted them to join any political party of their choice since I have become non partisan. I did not agree to lead them to APC. Accurate reporting without ambiguities is desired. Thanks

 

Recall that BlackBoix Nigeria had earlier reported that Otunba Gbanga Daniel on Saturday resigned from the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, saying he was quitting politics.

 

Apart from governing Ogun under the PDP, Mr Daniel was the chief campaign strategist of the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar in last month’s election.
