The spokesperson of the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, Kola Ologbondiyan on Wednesday revealed why lawmakers
from the Senate and the House of Representatives defected from the All
Progressives Congress, APC.
Ologbondiyan disclosed that the
defection of the lawmakers was an indication that President Muhammadu Buhari’s
administration has failed.
He said this while featuring on
Channels Television on Wednesday.
Recall that no
fewer than 15 senators of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, Tuesday,
defected to the PDP. The defectors cited crisis and factions as the reasons for
their defection, saying they cannot continue to pursue their political careers
under the ruling party.
Similarly, a total of 37 members
of the House of Representatives announced their official defection from the All
Progressives Congress, APC. While 33 moved to the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) 4 moved to another party.
But speaking on the defection,
the PDP’s spokesperson said, “We are very happy with their defection because it
signposts the fact that President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration has failed
woefully, and Nigerians have become disenchanted with the government.
“The representatives of Nigerians
are demonstrating the anger and the disappointment of Nigerians with their
government. That is what led to the defection that we are witnessing.
“What happened on the floor of
the Senate, as well as the floor of the House of Representatives, is a clear
indication of the rejection of APC and the President Muhammadu Buhari by
Nigerians.”
