Rinsola Abiola, daughter of late politician, Moshood Abiola, has renounced her membership of the All Progressives Congress.
Abiola relinquished her membership via letter that she sent to the APC chairman in her ward, Gbagura Ward 6 in Abeokuta North Local Government.
She shared a photo of the letter on her Twitter handle, @Bint_Moshood on Friday.
The Special Assistant to Speaker Yakubu Dogara, said although she had dumped the ruling party, she was yet to join another party.
She added that her choice of political platform would be informed by “factors such as commitment to youth and women inclusion, and internal democracy in its true sense.”
Her followers have been responding to her announcement on Twitter, mostly in the positive, with some begging her not to join the Peoples Democratic Party.

Wherever you decide on, you’ll do well.
Well done on all the advocacy you do, and all the very best for the future.

I’ve always wondered how you managed to fit into the party going by the values I perceive you have. I pretty much thought you were gathering like minds for a change but I was convinced the political dons in Nigeria will sink any good will and you’ll either break or leave.
Kudos.— Mo Fash (@_MoFash) August 31, 2018
Wow. I do believe this was a well thought out decision. You have made your mark with your activities so far and your value is unquestionable.
Best wishes in your future endeavours.

Interesting times ahead. Are you still running in 2019, if yes, which party do you intend to use? Are you following your boss out of the APC? What happens if he doesn’t defect?

This came as a shock. Wishing you the very best Rinsola. Thank you for being true to your ideals when you were in the APC and not getting involved in all the mud game.
You were above board.
Nothing but respect for you.
Please don’t leave politics. Ogun state & Nigeria needs you.— Ugonnia (@AustinYugo) August 31, 2018
