PDP Alleges Coercion in Face of Potential Governor Defections to APC

The People's Democratic Party (PDP) has accused the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) of coercing opposition politicians to defect. The National Publicity Secretary of the PDP raised concerns about alleged inducements and intimidation leading to defections.

Amid rumors of two governors planning to join the APC, the PDP emphasized the voluntary nature of party membership. The PDP highlighted the importance of individual choices in political affiliations and criticized any form of forced defection.

The party remains vigilant against attempts to weaken its ranks through external pressures and maintains a focus on retaining and attracting members based on ideological alignment rather than coercion.
