Others who joined the APC today include former National Deputy Chairman of the PDP, Shuaib Oyedokun, and Faruq Abbas, the Chief of Staff to the Osun House of Assembly Speaker.

Part of the APC bigwigs present to welcome the defectors included His Excellency Adegboyega Oyetola, Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, and Dr. Ajibola Basiru, the National Secretary of the APC, and other APC political leaders in the state.
