Ex-PDP Members Back AbdulRazaq for 2027 Elections
Some former members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) who defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kwara State have publicly declared their support for Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq and the APC as the leading party for the upcoming 2027 general elections. Operating under the Kwara Solidarity Movement (KSM), the group, coordinated by Akanbi Lamidi, held a press conference in Ilorin, where they emphasized the APC's potential for victory.
Lamidi called for reconciliation among aggrieved APC members, particularly appealing to Ambassador Yahaya Seriki, a former governorship aspirant, to return to the party and promote unity. The group, which consists of former PDP members who joined the APC between 2023 and 2026, endorsed AbdulRazaq for the Kwara Central senatorial seat, Mahmud Umar Muhammad for Kwara North, and Lekan Adewoye for Kwara South.
They also pledged support for other APC candidates in the National and State Houses of Assembly.
