Fani-Kayode warns of massive defection from APC
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Femi Fani-Kayode has warned his party of the impending doom, saying 22 senators are set to dump the party for the People’s Democratic Party, PDP.
Fani-Kayode, in a statement on Wednesday via his verified Twitter handle, stated that the senators are threatening to defect to the PDP because they had been denied the tickets to return to the Senate.
“This is serious and something must be done to prevent it. Many are concerned and we urge our able Nat. Chairman and the National Secretary to reach them. We cannot afford to lose them,” he said.
However, the National Chairman of the APC, Adamu Abdullahi had met with the party’s senators on Wednesday.
Adamu also met with the President of the Senate Ahmed Lawan for a brief meeting before the general meeting at the National Assembly complex.
It was gathered that the number of APC senators has been reduced to 62, by virtue of those senators who failed to secure return tickets to the chamber.
