The Senior Special Assistant on Rural Mobilisation to the Governor of Kwara State, Musbaudeen Esinrogunjo, has resigned his appointment with immediate effect.
His resignation comes amidst insinuation that he was planning to join the opposition PDP.
About two weeks ago, Esinrogunjo received the opposition leader in the state and former Senate president, Dr Bukola Saraki, in his campaign office, which sparked jubilation in the PDP.

The move, however, saw the deputy governor, Mr Kayode Alabi, visiting him few hours after Saraki left, with APC supporters latching in it to show the opposition that he was still in the APC.
But in his letter of resignation, seen by Daily Trust on Monday, Esinrogunjo stated that his decision was due to personal reasons and thanked Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq for giving him the opportunity to serve.
But in a swift reaction, the governor, through a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Rafiu Ajakaye, on Monday, confirmed the development and replaced the embattled former aide.
The governor approved the appointment of Idowu Rasaq Imam as Senior Special Assistant on Rural Mobilisation.
