I Have Not Abandoned Atiku – Gbenga Daniel

Otunba Gbenga Daniel has revealed that he has not abandoned defeated Presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.

Mr Gbenga exited PDP and politics days back, saying he needed time to focus on some personal projects.

Reports are now circulating that he might’ve left PDP to join APC after his supporters urged him to do exactly that at a recent meeting.

Gbenga Daniel has since responded to the reports, saying everything, as it is.

His words, “I have not, will not and will never abandon Atiku. Atiku is different from PDP. I have resigned from PDP and lost interest in partisan politics having put in about 20 years of my life in a thankless process.

“I will commit my God given resources to help less the less privileged through my Foundation and will contribute sharing the body of knowledge through our not for profit Political Academy.

“That will be a thankful process. I will continue to support the political process in a non partisan manner. I am clear with my position, without any ambiguity. There is no need to insinuate, speculate, extrapolate, anticipate or draw conclusions on my behalf.

“I did not expect such a simple personal decision can generate such national discourse and for that I remain grateful to God. I am however most grateful to all my friends and well wishers. The phones have not stopped ringing. All the advice are well taken. My very deep appreciation.”
