PDP Governors Mbah, Mutfwang, and Others Eye APC Switch Before 2027 Elections
Ahead of the 2027 general election, four governors from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) - Peter Mbah, Caleb Mutfwang, Douye Diri, and Agbu Kefas - are reportedly considering defecting to the All Progressives Congress (APC). The potential move is linked to internal crises within the PDP and the governors' desire to secure their political futures.
Speculation about their defection intensified after they were seen in discreet meetings with key APC stakeholders in Abuja. The shift could impact the balance of power between the two major political parties in Nigeria, with the APC making efforts to strengthen its position by attracting influential opposition figures.
