The Senator representing Ondo South in the national assembly, Jimoh Ibrahim, has claimed that some governors from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and other opposition parties are planning to cross over to the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Ibrahim said this while responding to questions on Channels Television.
He said many people had decamped to the party with some also expected in coming weeks.
Asked if it means well for the APC and the Tinubu government when people within the party openly criticize its policies, the lawmaker said: “That is one-sided argument. What about those from PDP that are joining us?
“You’re not looking at that. You abandoned it completely. You’re not talking about people who have come from the PDP to join us. How about Wike?
“Yeah, he said he’s a PDP. I mean, he’s serving in the APC government. How many people like that have been with us and how many governors cross to the APC.

“How many of them are planning to come? How many senators have now left and planning to come. Some Governors are planning to join APC of course, I don’t want to mention them so that I don’t embarrass people.
“But I can tell you that when I come next [to the programme], I’m telling you again…when I come back, next time you’ll see governor crossed to APC.”
