2019: PDP moves to harvest 6 APC governors, 27 N/Assembly members

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) said it has concluded discussions with 6 governors and 27 members of the National Assembly elected on the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to jump ship to its fold ahead of the 2019 general elections.

The PDP, in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan on Wednesday said  discussions on control of party structures in the affected states and senatorial zones have also reached advanced stage and would be completed in a couple of weeks.

The party said the APC governors and lawmakers would announce their defection to the PDP thereafter, but did not mention the names of the bigwigs that would join.
