In a major political shake-up, several prominent leaders of the Lagos chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have announced their defection to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
The announcement was made public just moments ago by Hakeem Amode, the former Publicity Secretary of the Lagos PDP, who confirmed his resignation from the party along with other key figures.
Although details surrounding the number and identities of the defecting members remain limited, Amode’s disclosure signals a significant blow to the opposition party in the state and could have ripple effects on Lagos’ political dynamics ahead of the next electoral cycle.
Political analysts are expected to weigh in on the implications of this development in the coming days, especially considering the PDP’s ongoing internal challenges both at the state and national levels.
Efforts to reach PDP leadership for comment are ongoing.
