Available information has revealed that Awosode sent his resignation letters to the state governor and the state party leadership yesterday.
It was further gathered that the senior government official took the decision on the need to further his political aspiration in the newly-founded Action Democratic Party (ADP).
Awosode’s resignation letters to Governor Aregbesola and the APC leadership have attracted mixed reactions from political observers both within and outside the government.
It would be recalled that the ruling-APC in the state has in recent times suffered mass exodus of its members to ADP including the State Deputy Chairman and eight members of the State Executive Committee of the APC in the state.
Other members of the party that had defected to the ADP include Ward Chairmen and their exco members.
