Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, has stated that the All Progressives Congress (APC) has gained more members after Senate President, Bukola Saraki and his loyalists defected to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
The Minister stated this on Sunday when he appeared as guest on a Nigeria Television Authority programme, “Stepping Up”.
Mohammed said he and his party were not bothered about the gale of defection to the PDP in his home state, Kwara.
His words: “Yes, we lost some people who left with the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, like the state governor and 23 of the 24 members of House of Assembly.
“But the good news is that APC had gained massively. Many PDP members who could not stand in the same party with Saraki are defecting to APC.
“The most important thing is that the people of Kwara are very much with us and I am confident that come 2019, we will win massively in Kwara State”.
