**Less than two months ahead of the Ondo State governorship election, Mrs. Susan Gbemisola Alabi has announced her resignation from the Social Democratic Party (SDP) and the deputy governorship race.**
Alabi’s decision reportedly stems from irreconcilable differences with the SDP’s governorship candidate, Otunba Bamidele Akingboye. In her resignation letter, dated October 2, 2024, and addressed to SDP National Chairman Alhaji Shehu Musa Gabam, Alabi confirmed her departure from the party and notified Akingboye of her resignation from the deputy governorship position.
“I am writing to formally resign from my membership in the Social Democratic Party (SDP) effective immediately. This decision was not made lightly as I have valued my time with the party. However, after careful consideration, I believe it is in my best interest to pursue new opportunities and directions,” Alabi stated in her letter.
She expressed gratitude for the support she received during her tenure in the SDP, wishing the party continued success in the future.
Femi Ikoyi, Director General of the Otunba Bamidele Akingboye Campaign Organisation, mentioned that Akingboye was unaware of Alabi’s resignation and promised to confirm the situation for further updates.
