Petra Onyegbule, the former spokesperson of Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, has confirmed her resignation few weeks after the governor’s New Media aide, Joel Odaudu, also resigned.
Mrs Onyegbule confirmed her resignation in a statement issued on Monday on Facebook.
She, however, assured that she remained committed to the re-election bid of President Muhammadu Buhari, and debunked insinuations that she was moving to another party.
“By 23rd of February, 2016, I was appointed as the Senior Special Assistant on Electronic Media to His Excellency. I did my best on the role. And in recognition of my efforts, I was promoted to the position of Chief Press Secretary to His Excellency effective 1st of October, 2016.
“Having given my all and in recognition of the fact that the only constant thing in life is change, I am convinced it is time to move on as I seek fulfillment on another level.
“I am not a new convert Buharist. I was a Buharist when GMB sounded like a taboo to many. I am a Buharist now that we are seeking to take Nigeria to the Next Level.
“At this juncture I will like to express profound gratitude to His Excellency, Alhaji Yahaya Bello for changing my story. I am not who I was in January 2016. I take with me invaluable experience money can never buy. Thank you sir.
“My boss is one of the hardest core Buharists I know. I am no longer part of his government but I belong to the larger Buhari family of which he is one and together we shall all do our bit to make the Next Level a reality by February. The insinuation that I resigned to join any other campaign is wishful thinking taken to another level,” she said.
