Kwara APC Lawmaker Joins PDP, Aims to Boost Party's Prospects for 2027 Elections

Sahe Popoola, a two-term APC lawmaker in Kwara State, has defected to the PDP, criticizing the APC's loss of vision and loyalty to the people. Popoola aims to help PDP reclaim power in Kwara State in 2027, citing the state's security challenges and alleged misgovernance.

The defection was described as a homecoming by the PDP chairman, Issa Bawa, who commended Popoola's courage and integrity. The move is seen as a significant boost for PDP's momentum in Offa ahead of the upcoming elections.
