The National Chairman of the Labour Party (LP), Senator Nenadi Usman, has said she does not know the reasons opposition politicians are defecting to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), insisting that the trend does not spell the end of opposition influence ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Usman made the remarks during an interview on Politics on Sunday aired by TVC News, where she reacted to recent defections from opposition parties, including the Labour Party, to the APC.
Speaking on the gale of defections, Usman said she could not point to any specific reason behind the movement of politicians to the APC.
“You asked me, you said what do I think is making them flock to the APC? Honestly, I don’t know what is making them flock to the APC,” she said.
“We hear a lot of news around. We hear stories of people who — they say, if you join the APC, your sins are forgiven, right? So, it could be that. I don’t know,” Usman added.
