In a letter addressed to the chairman of the PDP Governors Forum and Ondo state governor, Dr Olusegun Mimiko, Onaiwu said his decision was to allow him pursue other endeavours in future. Part of the letter read: “Unto every time there is a season, and in line with this Biblical truth, I wish to inform His Excellency of my resignation, effective June 21, 2016 as the Director General of the PDP Governors Forum. “I am persuaded to call it quits in order to pursue my future endeavour in other capacity. “During my years as DG of the Forum, I am consoled by the fact that my loyalty, competence and service was at no time in doubt, therefore will be leaving with gratitude. “I wish to thank His Excellency and all his brother governors, present and former, for their support during my term as DG and wish the Forum the best. “I profoundly thank His Excellency, Dr. Bukola Saraki, President of the Senate, who gave me the initial opportunity at the Nigeria Governors Forum, as well as , former governors Jonah Jang and Godswill Akpabio, who led the NGF and PDP Governors Forum at different times for their support and confidence.” Onaiwu was the chairman of the Nigeria Governors Forum before there was a split in the group and he pitched tent with the PDP governors. Meanwhile, Mimiko has called for prayers for Nigeria, adding that apart from prayers, the country needs PDP because according to him, the party is good at bringing this Nigerians together. ”Whatever anybody may say about PDP, PDP has not been a perfect party, PDP has its own limitations, but one thing that anybody cannot deny, is that PDP is a pan-Nigerian party and has succeeded to bringing everybody together in this country,” Mimiko said.
