Defections: Ologbondiyan Justifies Actions, Says Politician Looking For Safe Landing

A former National Publicity Secretary of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, Kola Ologbondiyan, says the recent gale of defections of opposition leaders to the All-Progressives Congress, APC, is due to threats of a witch-hunt by the ruling party.

Urban Express News Online reports that Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, along with his predecessor, Ifeanyi Okowa, several commissioners, and others, last month defected from the PDP to the APC.

There is growing speculation that more governors may follow suit shortly.

Ologbondiyan, who spoke on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Monday, and that which was monitored by Urban Express News online stated that the governors and other opposition leaders defecting to the APC are merely seeking refuge to avoid being hounded by the ruling party.

“You must not forget that the former National Chairman of APC told Nigerians that just come over here, we will forgive all your sins, so people are looking for where sins are forgiven,” Ologbodiyan said.

According to him, no matter how many opposition leaders the APC manages to attract, the party will still have to contend with millions of Nigerians in its bid to retain power in 2027.

“But you know one thing, at the end of it all, it is going to be about the Nigerians’ position.

“You may pack all 36 governors and put them in one boardroom and say they should declare for you. Have you packed over 200 million Nigerians into the same boardroom? The answer is no,” he said.
