How to remove Yahoo! Account

[anon(9100026)]

Hello all
My Yahoo! Mail account is associated with Gmail. I also have Yahoo mail separate app. The reason I associated my yahoo mail account with my Gmail app was the yahoo mail app's head was stuck in its arse (its performance sucked) . But there are two notifications for the same email and more importantly the yahoo mail app has started to do better- meaning I am not uninstalling it. So my intention is now I want to remove the yahoo account from the Gmail. The problem is whenever I go to the Gmail app on my phone and remove the yahoo account By clicking remove account, it is gone. But, when I hit the yahoo mail app it starts from scratch like asking for username password and then showing "initialising mailbox". And finally the yahoo mail is again associated with Gmail !

What's the solution?
