John Oyegun, the national chairman of All Progressive Congress (APC), has decried the gale of defection from the ruling party to the APC saying it is not good for the nation’s political development.
Oyegun, said this while addressing newsmen in Benin shortly after casting his vote. He advised that 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,” Oyegun said.
He described the governorship and houses of assembly elections as “the most decent, orderly and peaceful” ever conducted in Edo.
