Segun Sowunmi, a former spokesperson for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has hinted at his possible defection to the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC on grounds that PDP leadership has refused entreaties to reposition the party.
Recall that Sowunmi’s colleague and ex-Atiku’s campaign spokesman, Daniel Bwala met President Bola Tinubu at the Villa and talked of his preparedness to defect to the ruling party because of his love for the incumbent.
Showunmi took to X to express hisreadiness to tag along Bwala if the PDP is not reformed.
“Am I going to criticise President Bola Tinubu more than the one I have been criticising him? Am I going to fight him more than the one I have been fighting him?
”I have known this man since 1993 by name and by voice. And yet, on behalf of this party and for the benefit of this party, I am closing my eyes to everything.
”The person that was president in 1999, is he still a member of their party today? The one that said he didn’t have shoes – Jonathan – that we gave him presidency two times.
”Because of Jonathan, we became a party that everybody was abusing. He is not still standing with the party today.
”I am still here standing and shouting. If they don’t want us to reform the party, please o, Bwala o Bwala, Bwala, Bwala, keep space for me, I am coming,” he wrote.
