Fayose Alleges 3 PDP Governors Planning to Defect to APC Ahead of 2027 Elections

Former Governor Ayodele Fayose has claimed that three PDP governors are preparing to defect to the APC ahead of the 2027 elections, attributing the move to internal crises within the PDP. Fayose criticized the alleged lack of political value in PDP's presidential and governorship tickets, accusing the party of being in disarray due to internal sabotage.

He also dismissed rumors of defection being based on external pressure, refuting claims of President Bola Tinubu's involvement in influencing opposition governors to defect. The PDP has denied the defection rumors, labeling them as baseless.

The potential moves of governors like Dr. Agbu Kefa and consultations with former Senator Dahiru Bako have fueled speculation about political realignments in Nigeria.
