Lagos PDP leaders, members defect to APC

Even as the President and leader of the nation’s ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, was still in Lagos on a visit, hundreds of his Party leaders and members in the State, Saturday abandoned the Party and declared for the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The defectors, who were led by a one time chieftain of the PDP in the State, Dr. Abayomi Finnih, were received at the Acme Road Secretariat of the APC in a colourful ceremony which was graced by prominent Party leaders and members including the State Governor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola SAN.

In his remarks while welcoming the new members, Governor Fashola described the defection of the former PDP members at a time their leader was in the State as both a great coincidence and a sign that all was not well in the party which, according to him, was rapidly heading for a great fall.

The Governor, who noted that the PDP had lost governors, senators and other elected persons in the National Assembly without going to an election, told the capacity audience, “When you see former governors, national office holders and so on and so forth leaving in droves even when the leader of the Party is in town, it is a great coincidence but it is also a sign that the giant is beginning to fall”.

“For me, it is interesting that a party loses five governors without going to an election. It is worth the Guinness Book of Records. And it will interest you that things are no longer well in that party. They lose Governors, they lose senators and without going to an election they lose leaders of the House”, he said.

Governor Fashola explained that, in spite of the apparent belligerence of the opposition Party in the State, the APC does not regard them as enemies but fellow contestants in an election adding, “They are our opponents and we will continue to defeat them in elections in which a fair contest is made possible”.



Frowning at the use of such belligerent words as “Capture” and “fall” in their campaigns in Lagos, the Governor declared, “For us it is an election and we want to win. We are not slaves here and we will not be captured by any people, any party or any government”.

“For us the time to change the management of Nigeria’s government is upon us. Those who have been entrusted with that responsibility have demonstrated a lack of capacity to do so. We need a fresh pair of hands, a fresh pair of eyes and a fresh set of minds to reappraise Nigeria’s problems”, he said adding that the party best suited to do so i the All Progressives Congress.

Governor Fashola, who asserted that the APC has recorded tremendous success and performance in the states under it against the odds, cited the funding, equipping, fueling and maintenance of the Police Force in the State, a Federal Government responsibility, as an example of the APC success.

He also recapped the pronouncement of the leader of the former PDP members, Dr. Abayomi Finnih, who in his remarks earlier said the neglect of Lagos by the Party he used to belong to was no longer tolerable, adding that the State has benefitted nothing from the ruling Party in the last 16 years.

Pointing out that no citizen of the State has been appointed Minister during that period, Governor Fashola asked the former PDP members, “What have you gotten after 16 years? Do you have a Minister representing this State? And when they choose a Minister they choose somebody outside the State”.

The Governor, however, assured them the Party would as much as possible, make the political space a most welcome place for them adding, “We will give you as much opportunity to participate, there will be as much level playing field as possible and that is the commitment the leaders have resolved and I want to share this with you”.

Urging the new members to put the interest of the APC above their personal interests, the Governor declared, “I have met with your leaders and I have spoken with them that as we converge together our Party’s interest must be bigger than our individual interests. It is only when we bake a cake that we apportion bits of it. All of us must work together”.

Welcoming the former opposition members, he State Chairman of the APC, Otunba Henry Ajomale, said the APC was determined to turn around the affairs of the country pointing out that in the history of human existence, evil has never triumphed over good.

“The Economy of the country is in shambles. APC has warned the ruling Party against this recession but they have failed to listen. We cannot continue to do things the same way and expect to get good results. APC must teach them how to lead. Things must change. The government in Abuja must go now”, he said.

Earlier, while introducing the former PDP members to the new party, their Leader, Dr. Abayomi Finnih said their decision to join the APC was based on several considerations some of which include lack of internal democracy in the PDP and the continued neglect of Lagos by the ruling Party.

Describing the PDP as a colossal disappointment, Dr. Finnih said APC has demonstrated good governance in all the states under its administration describing the administration in Lagos State as a clear manifestation of what the APC represents. “We are happy to be associated with APC which is a true Party of progressives and we will add value to the Party”, he said.



Also present at the occasion were the Deputy Governor, Hon. Mrs. Adejoke Orelope-Adefulire, a former Deputy Governor of the State, Alhaji Rafiu Jafojo, Party Chieftains including Chief (Mrs.) Kemi Nelson, Chief (Mrs.) Oluwole, Dr. Yinka Daramola, Otunba Okanlanwon and Prince Segun Adeyemi among other dignitaries and Party stalwarts.

See as dem carry broom keep for table. Progressives indeed!

Bad eggs.

Shameless polithiefcians. When they dont get what they are looking for in APC now, expect them to decamp back to PDP.
None of them is defecting based on any ideological stand. Just like that Umana Umana guy that defected to APC, they are all motivated by personal gains.

Some people would need to eat a lot of Morringa seeds after seeing these pictures.

The problem of the opposition in states like Lagos and Ogun is that the APC governors in both states have used their performance to silent them.

It is so easy for the APC to win in Kogi, Benue, kaduna, Abia than for the PDP to smell Alausa or Oke Mosan. The morale of the story is PARTIES SHOULD LEARN TO PUT THEIR BEST MEN FORWARD.

What will PDP campaign in Lagos be based on? Tinubu I guess.

Where is ideology in nigerian politics, unless we want to decieve ourselves. Politics in nigeria is about self interest, where and how to amass wealth. Abi u no know how naija thing dey go ni...

The prayer that the PDP should be making is to wish the next governor perfprms abysmally poor to enable them get some level of political leverage.

Most of those defecting have been rendered useless in Lagos PDP since ogunlewe and later Bode George corner all federal appointment to their families and cronies. The likes of finnih remained in the PDP when the sarumi's, adeniji adele, sen. Tony adefuye, afikuyomi all jumped ship to the APC.

But politicians strives on patronage, if all federal juicy appointment and contracts by the PDP have been hijacked by some cabal running a patrimony style of leadership and those that jumped ship to the now APC benefitting one way of the other and gaining relevance, it will be political seppuku to remain in that same PDP that Bode George has turned into his family biz in the SW.

Won't blame anybody for decamping, its all politics and as you're aware, the winner takes all.

All of dem na criss-crossers...no principles, no ideologies...it's all about how and where to get the cash.
No party for 9ja..

Ashewo People's Congress (Apeeshit) = APC
