‘Other Parties Are Dying,’ Yilwatda Defends Mass Defections Into APC
AI Summary
APC National Chairman Nentawe Yilwatda defended recent defections to the ruling party, stating that other parties are losing relevance due to weaker management and organization. He highlighted the APC's internal processes, citing a consensus primary in Osun that he said no other party has achieved without legal disputes. Yilwatda argued that the APC offers better governance, party management, and transparency, which attracts defectors. Critics warn that the growing dominance of the APC could undermine multi‑party competition ahead of the 2027 elections.
