John Oyegun, the national chairman of APC said today
Saturday April 11th that the gale of defections by
politicians was not good for Nigeria’s political
development. Mr. Oyegun, who spoke to newsmen in Benin shortly after
casting his vote, advised those defecting to the winning
party to rather form a formidable opposition to enrich
the nation’s democracy. “Many opposition party members have defected to APC
just because they lost out, that is not good for political
development. One would have advised that opposition members should
stay where they are, and form a formidable opposition
party.” Mr. Oyegun said. He described the governorship and houses of assembly
elections as “the most decent, orderly and peaceful” ever
conducted in Edo. Meanwhile, the APC national chairman
won the election in his polling unit. Oredo East: Ward 2, Unit 1 Polling Unit, the first time
since 1991 when he was elected governor. (NAN)
