He wrote, “I have not moved to a new platform yet to seek re-election. My focus now is to control the spread of the coronavirus pandemic, which is ravaging our country and threatening our healthcare system. Stay safe.”
Obaseki dumped the All Progressives Congress following his disqualification from the June 22 governorship primary in the state.
He announced the decision to State House correspondents after a meeting at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Tuesday.
The governor said he would pursue his ambition for second term in office on another platform.
