A former governor of Ogun state, Gbenga Daniel, says he has notified the state governor, Dapo Abiodun to stop the payment of his pension and allowances as former governor forthwith.
Daniel, now a senator, representing Ogun east in the senate, said he made decision in “good conscience, moral principles and guiding ethics.”
In a tweet on Friday, Daniel said apart from the pension, he has not benefited from any welfare package such as medical, transportation or furniture since he left office in 2011.
“After my inauguration at the senate, I wrote H.E Prince Dapo Abiodun MFR, CON on June 14, 2023, to notify him of my decision to have the monthly payment of N676,376.95 kobo being gross payment for my pension and allowances as former governor of the Ogun state suspended immediately,” he tweeted.
