PDP Faces Setbacks as Governors Defect to APC Ahead of 2023 Elections

The People's Democratic Party (PDP) suffers a blow as two governors, including Enugu State's Douye Diri, defect to the All Progressives Congress (APC), leaving PDP with control over eight states. The defections come amidst concerns over the party's stability and unity ahead of the 2023 general elections.

High-profile exits spark renewed anxiety within the PDP, prompting calls for urgent action to address the trend. In Kaduna State, three lawmakers also defect from PDP to APC, further highlighting the party's challenges.
