The All Progressives Congress, APC, has declosed that individuals from the camp of the Labour Party’s presidential candidate in the last election, Peter Obi, have opened talks to defect to the ruling party.
The Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Media and Policy, Daniel Bwala, made this revelation in a television interview.
Bwala noted that one of Obi’s handlers is already in APC, while “the second handler is in talks” with party leaders.
He furthered that one of Obi’s media aides has expressed readiness to join the ruling party.
He said, “Governors are on their own coming into our party. What about the key managers of specific presidential candidates of the last election?
“Take, for example, Peter Obi, one of his handlers, is with us. The second handler is in talks with us. One of his media spokesmen is in talks with us.
“Why are they joining us? Nobody is giving anybody kobo, but because they realise we are not perfect as a government, our hearts are right, our head is correct, and we are creating a national consensus.”
