Former Nigerian Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, has expressed joy over the defection of Senate President Bukola Saraki and Kwara State Governor, Alhaji Abdulfatah Ahmed to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Fani-Kayode, a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain said he was delighted by the development.
He tweeted: “Great to hear that my friend and brother Senate President @bukolasaraki, together with the Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed of Kwara, have finally dumped the Association of Pedophiles and Coprophiliacs (APC), stepped out of the darkness and joined the forces of light. Thanks be to God.”
In a statement, Senior Special Assistant on Media and Communications to the Kwara State governor, Dr. Muyideen Akorede, gave reason for his defection.
He explained that the governor’s decision followed due consultations with the people and in response to calls by major stakeholder groups in Kwara state.
Ahmed added that he defected to PDP, having realized that the All Progressive Congress (APC) can no longer serve as a platform for achieving the aspirations and expectations of his people.
