Ogun APC Defection Rally Faces Questions Over Alleged Crowd Mobilisation
The Ogun APC is preparing for a rally in Ogun East that is being presented as a major defection of PDP members to the ruling party. Reports say buses have been deployed across the senatorial district to transport attendees. The planned event has sparked questions over whether those attending are genuine PDP defectors or existing APC supporters mobilised to demonstrate political strength. The party recently announced that figures linked to former Governor Gbenga Daniel and the late Senator Buruji Kashamu had joined its ranks. Governor Dapo Abiodun’s camp says the new entrants will be integrated into APC structures as it seeks to strengthen its position ahead of 2027. Critics say the party should identify the alleged defectors, their wards, former PDP roles and evidence of resignation if the rally is to be seen as a genuine political realignment. The central question remains whether the gathering reflects real defections or an organised display of support.
