Two PDP Governors to Defect to APC, Another Expected to Follow Next Week

Two PDP governors, Peter Mbah of Enugu and Douye Diri of Bayelsa, are reportedly planning to defect to the APC next week, with Agbu Kefa of Taraba also making arrangements to join the ruling party. The defections come amidst pressure from political allies and youth groups.

The move has faced resistance from figures like former President Goodluck Jonathan and Senator Seriake Dickson (Bayelsa West). The defections are expected to be formalized soon, with Peter Mbah's declaration scheduled for October 14, 2025.

The political landscape in Nigeria is set for a significant shift with these high-profile defections.
