The Oyo State Governor, Mr. Seyi Makinde, has dropped a bombshell – that the most important defection in Nigeria was yet to take place — the defection of hunger and poverty from the country.
Makinde in his bi-monthly newsletter released on Thursday, noted said while recent defections of some Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, governors to the All Progressives Congress, APC, have dominated national discussions, Nigerians should focus on when economic hardship “defects” out of their lives, as only then will prosperity return.
“I am sure many of you have been following the recent defections of politicians, especially the governors who have left the PDP for the APC and other parties,” Makinde wrote.
