Details As Presidential Candidate Decamps To APC
Explains the reasons for the move in a statement
The Presidential candidate of one of the opposition parties in the 2019 election has decamped to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Gbenga Olawepo-Hashim, who flew the flag of the People’s Trust is now a member of the APC.
He dumped his party for the APC on Wednesday, August 4, 2021.
Olawepo- Hashim explains the reasons for the move in a statement monitored by societynow.ng on dailypost.ng that reads in part “opting for the APC to actualise my vision because the party is not just populated by people with whom we founded the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) together but also because the party is a reasonable pathway for the preservation of the unity and progress of the nation.”
“In deciding for the APC, I have no illusion that I have come to a perfect party or that the struggle to birth a new Nigeria on this my chosen new platform will be easy.
“I remain solid in my pursuit of a New Nigeria, Modern, United Peaceful and prosperous! God bless us all.”
