He revealed his decision to quit politics was taken based on advice given to him by his family members, more so that age is having a toll on him.

“I want to quit the leadership position in 2023. I will remove myself from partisan politics, my family members advised me to have more time to myself, my system also does not support running around.”

Though, for some time now, the PDP stalwart has not been carried along in the leadership structure of the PDP where his voice hasn’t been heard for sometime in the decision making of the Party both at the State and National level,  he said that was not the reason behind his decision to quit partisan politics.

“I am not pushed aside, I am well known and well accepted in the party, I am not pushed aside. I am well known. I have gotten to my political zenith in the party, I have participated in the party actively and that gave me a wealth of experience I want to share,” he said.
