Nasarawa State Governor, Abdullahi Sule, has hinted that more governors across the country are set to defect to the All Progressives Congress.
“I don’t know the number, but we are expecting more governors to join the APC,” Sule said during a live broadcast on “Politics Today,” which aired on Channels TV on Thursday.
Recall that, Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, became the latest high-profile politician to team up with the APC after he led his cabinet to dump the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party.
But Oborevwori’s defection to the APC won’t be the last as more governors are set to move to the APC, Sule said
“You have a lot of people who have shown interest even among the governors, you know who are coming into the APC,” he said.
According to him, the swelling number of high-profile politicians in the APC is a reflection of the reforms by President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
Sule said many politicians in the country admire the President’s leadership and have already indicated interest in joining the ruling party.
“When we are meeting with the president, you see the excitement among them,” he said.
Sule said the governors feel “accepted by this President, and they like him.”
