APC Primaries Expose the Fate of Political Defectors

Power in Nigerian politics draws opportunists like moths to a flame. Every election cycle, governors, senators, and lawmakers abandon their old parties for the ruling APC, expecting instant rewards. When the APC primaries arrived, many defectors found themselves stranded. Tickets disappeared, promises evaporated, and once-hopeful politicians watched their careers crumble at the party’s gates. This ruthless strategy shows that the APC values usefulness and loyalty over desperation. Defection offered no refuge—only the spectacle of discarded ambitions. The lesson is clear: switching parties is not a baptism of opportunity. Crossing the carpet guarantees nothing except a front-row seat to your own political downfall.
