Speaking with journalists in Abuja, Yekini revealed that Diri is looking to defect to the party to destroy APC’s existing leadership before jumping ship.
According to him, Governor Diri’s planned defection would not yield the type of political impact he might be anticipating because he will never be able to take control of the party.
He accused loyalists of the governor of stoking arrest rumours linking the Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, Dr Samuel Ogbuku, with regard to an alleged coup plot.
