Barely 24 hours to the inauguration of Senator Ibikunle Amosun as the new governor of Ogun State, out-going governor, Otunba Gbenga Daniel Friday night travelled to London, fuelling speculation that he may have fled to avert arrest for alleged corruption.
Daniel left aboard a British Airways flight to London. A British Airways official confirmed to THISDAY that Daniel was aboard the flight to the United Kingdom last night.

The trip, coming less than 24 hours to the swearing in of his successor is rather curious, given the controversy that has been trailing his administration, particularly as regard alleged corruption.
Daniel left when he still enjoys immunity from arrest as an incumbent governor. He loses the immunity by May 29 when his tenure expires.

Out-going Ogun State Governor, Otunba Gbenga Daniel


By Idowu Sowunmi

Barely 24 hours to the inauguration of Senator Ibikunle Amosun as the new governor of Ogun State, out-going governor, Otunba Gbenga Daniel Friday night travelled to London, fuelling speculation that he may have fled to avert arrest for alleged corruption.
Daniel left aboard a British Airways flight to London. A British Airways official confirmed to THISDAY that Daniel was aboard the flight to the United Kingdom last night.

The trip, coming less than 24 hours to the swearing in of his successor is rather curious, given the controversy that has been trailing his administration, particularly as regard alleged corruption.
Daniel left when he still enjoys immunity from arrest as an incumbent governor. He loses the immunity by May 29 when his tenure expires.

A few days ago, he admitted that he left behind a debt of N49 billion.
In a move targeted at Daniel, some of the top officials that worked with him particularly the Director-General of the Bureau of Lands & Survey, Gbenga Ogunnoiki, had been under investigation for some time now by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.
Although EFCC officials declined comments Friday night on Daniel’s curious trip, they, however, admitted they had been discreetly investigating Daniel.
Daniel had lamented that despite his efforts at taking the state to a greater height, he was constrained to leave behind N49, 232,597,163.67 debts.
