Opposition Governors Set to Join APC Ahead of 2023 Elections
Speculation is rife about two opposition party governors planning to join the All Progressives Congress (APC), as hinted by a former aide to President Muhammadu Buhari. The governors, from Taraba State and the North West region, are expected to defect to the ruling party soon.
This move aligns with a trend of opposition politicians switching sides ahead of the 2023 elections. While the governors have not made official statements, their increased interactions with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu suggest a potential realignment in Nigerian politics, driven by factors such as access to federal resources and shifting loyalties within the political landscape.
