Two APC Govs, Federal Lawmakers Set To Defect- PDP

The ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) yesterday disclosed that two All Progressives Congress (APC) governors and federal lawmakers were set to join the ruling party.

PDP, in a statement, lambasting the APC for attempting to deceive Nigerians by presenting former governor of Borno State, Senator Ali Modu Sheriff as one of President Goodluck Jonathans entourage to Chad. It said governors and federal lawmakers intended to move because of APCs bad image and anti-democratic stance.

The statement signed by National Publicity Secretary of the party, Olisa Metuh, said Many more of its (APC) members including two state governors and members of the National Assembly are now set to decamp to the PDP due to the bad image and anti-democratic stance of the APC.

PDP however, described as repulsive and utterly despicable, the refusal of the APC to shed its taste for lying, spreading of falsehood and attacks on individuals as means of achieving political control in spite of several counsels by well-meaning Nigerians.
