    This user should make the organization's admin know that the account is still active. The admin has to deactivate/delete it from their organization's admin center.

    Hello IniobongNkanga-8038,

    Why can’t I leave an organization?

    In the Home organization section, there's no link to Leave your organization. Only an administrator can remove your account from your home organization. Because your account is managed by your administrator, you're not allowed to leave your home organization.

    Administrators can use the External user leave settings to control whether external users can remove themselves from their organization. If you disallow the ability for external users to remove themselves from your organization, external users will need to contact your admin, or privacy contact to be removed.

    Important: If you leave an organization by mistake, there's no way to undo it. You'll have to wait for the administrator of that organization to invite you again
