PDP Chairmanship: Gbenga Daniel Storms IBB’s Minna Residence

Former Ogun State Governor, Otunba Gbenga Daniel, on Wednesday, stormed ex-military ruler, Ibrahim Babangida’s Minna, Niger State residence over his ambition to become next National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Daniel had gone to seek IBB’s blessings in his quest to lead the PDP.

The former governor visited the ex-military Head of State’s hilltop residence alongside his powerful delegation.

Babangida, while receiving Daniel and his team, expressed confidence in the former governor’s “unparalleled capacity” to lead the party.

He said: “I was elated when I first heard that you were interested in volunteering yourself for this great service to our country, you represent the breadth of fresh air that the Party deserves at this stage.

“I know OGD very well and I know his unparalleled capacity for work. I have a strong conviction that with OGD as chairman, the Party can be turned around again.

“I am supporting you because I know you very well. OGD, you’re my Chairman in waiting”
