I’m Out Of 2015 Senate Race – Gbenga Daniel by argon500: 9:48am On Nov 28, 2014
Immediate past governor of Ogun State, Otunba Olugbenga Daniel has said that he would no longer contest the 2015 Senatorial election in Ogun State. In an exclusive interview in his Lagos home, yesterday, the former governor appreciated the demands on him to contest, especially by people who believed that his doing so would boost their own aspirations.
His words: “The Senate, for me, is not an ambition. On the contrary, the pressure on me to run sometimes is because some people believe that my name will add value to their own aspirations.

‘’They believe that if I run for the Senate, it will rub positively on the tickets of other people.
‘’But I have taken a decision, all things being equal, that I will not run for Senate under this dispensation.
“Or put the other way, I feel that having achieved the required stability within the party, PDP, I can now successfully say that I am bowing out of the senatorial race. That does not stop me from supporting all the people that I need to support.”
Otunba Daniel who spoke on many issues remarked that Ogun State has a master plan for development, which any incoming administration can use to take the state to greater heights instead of attempting to diminish the legacies of their predecessors.
