Ondo APC chairman reportedly dumps party for PDP

The Chairman of All Progressives Congress, APC, in Ese- Odo Local Government Area of Ondo State has on Friday announced his membership resignation from the party and is reportedly set to join the People Democratic Party.

Samuel Olorunwa Ajayi, was the party chairman of the State Deputy Governor, Mr Agboola Ajayi when he (Ajayi) was in the APC.

Recall that the deputy governor had earlier dumped the party for the PDP.

The Chairman tendered his resignation letter at the party’s secretariat on Friday, 10th July 2020.

Speaking on the telephone, Olorunwa said he resigned his position as LG chairman as well as being a member of the APC as from Friday. He was however silent on his next political move.

It was gathered that his action was not unconnected with the recent defection of the deputy governor to the Peoples Democratic Party. He was also said to be a close political associate of the deputy governor.

A source said the former APC chieftain would be announcing his detection to the PDP any moment from now, saying all the arrangements had been concluded for the defection.

” He may announce his defection to the PDP next week,” the source disclosed.
