At least 500 members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos ahead of the national and state elections coming up on February 12 and March 11.

Receiving the defectors at Alausa, Lagos, on Monday, the director-general of the Independent Campaign Council of the APC, Tayo Ayinde, said their defection would enhance the ruling party’s electoral victory.

The defectors were led by the PDP women leader, Aolat Olatunde, and others at Ward C comprising Alausa, Olusosun and Oregun.

Mr Ayinde, also the Chief of Staff to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, congratulated the new members of APC for their decision and assured them of fairness and equal treatment with old members.

He promised to work with all party members to ensure victory for the party’s presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, and for other party candidates in the state.

He urged other political party members to come to the ruling party because of the massive development embarked upon by the current administration.

He said it was obvious that there had been massive development across the nooks and crannies of the state.

In her remarks, Ms Olatunde said the personality of Mr Tinubu attracted her and others to the APC.

“Tinubu is an enigma who has assisted a lot of people irrespective of their tribal, political or religious affiliations, and I also benefitted from him when he was the governor of Lagos.

“We can also see the good works of Sanwo-Olu. These and many other reasons prompted our decision to join the APC,’’ she said.
