Eyitayo Jegede Leaves PDP for ADC in Ondo State

Eyitayo Jegede, SAN, the former governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ondo State, has officially joined the African Democratic Congress (ADC). This transition was announced during a reception held at NEPA Park in Akure, Ondo State, where Jegede was welcomed alongside other political figures who defected from the PDP and All Progressives Congress (APC).

The event was led by Rauf Aregbesola, the ADC National Secretary and former Osun State Governor, who was joined by ADC presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar and other party leaders. Jegede, who previously contested the Ondo State governorship election on the PDP platform, was accompanied by his supporters and political associates.

The ADC is expanding its political structure in preparation for the 2027 elections, and Aregbesola expressed his enthusiasm for the new members joining the party.
