These certainly are not the best of times for members of the family of Mr. Gbenga Daniel, the former Governor of Ogun State over alleged visible display of anger and worrisome attitude that are feared to be symptomatic of mental illness.


Sharpedgenews.com gathered that Mr. Daniel, with a questionable chieftancy title of Otunba spares nobody or object in sight, when overwhelmed by fits of brain waves. And workers at his news stable of Nigerian Compass Mail, particularly journalists , are now victims of Daniel’s inexplicable madness.
According to sources around Gbenga Daniel, a simple protest of non-payment of salaries and other outstanding allowances recently triggered the ex-Governor to write hapless policemen over a matter that was purely an industrial dispute.
Family insiders say that they fear Daniel may be haunted by some atrocities commited while calling tht shots as a governor. He is said to hallucinate and be schizophrenic.
The workers
Sharpedgenews.com gathered had assembled themselves at the premises of the Compass Newspaper to demand payment of backlog of unpaid.
The top management of the newspaper outfit we learnt informed the owner, Otunba Gbenga Daniel who gave the order for invitation of security operatives to quell the workers’ uprising.

Sharpedgenews.com was also told that in the ensuing melee many of the protesters were hurt when the security operatives began firing tear-gas canisters and rubber-bullets.
Further investigation revealed that the former Governor since leaving office in May 2011 has not been able to meet up with the financial responsibilities of the newspaper outfit.

A source told Sharpedgenews.com that already the salaries of the workers have been slashed into half of what they should normally get.
The source further added that apart from the fact that the salaries of the workers have been slashed, they have not been paid for months.

The source added that the former Governor of the Gateway State may be broke because he is no longer in government and unfortunately for him, his candidate did not win the April polls in the State. “He no longer has access to free money”, said a source.
Sharpedgenews.com also discovered that Nigerian Compass’s sister publication known as The Westerner has since disappeared from the newsstands because of the current financial position of Gbenga Daniel’s awkward financial predicament, as he can no longer run the two titles simultaneously like he used to when he was in government.


Investigation by Sharpedgenews.com shows that most of the workers who had been initially seduced to work with the newspaper are now regretting their decisions as they can no longer pull out.
