Peter Dada, AkureThere are strong indications that the Ondo State Deputy Governor, Mr Agboola Ajayi, will be resigning his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party this week. It was reliably gathered that the deputy governor had almost concluded arrangements for his defection with the leadership of the Zenith Labour Party. He was said to have been adopted as the standard bearer of the ZLP in the forthcoming governorship election. A reliable source confirmed to our correspondent on Monday that Ajay would first resign his membership of the PDP before he formerly joins the ZLP. The state Publicity Secretary of the ZLP, Mr Felix Olatunde, confirmed the development.
