Reacting to the massive wave of defections by members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the governing party Tinubu said: “The inflow of the PDP members will crumble the APC, especially, if the president decides to do just a term.”

Moreover, former governor of Lagos state mentioned that Buhari may have a potential successor, to whom he can entrust the leadership of the country. He added:

“President Buhari I know, has very good intentions for Nigeria, and he would want to handover to someone he deems not to be corrupt. It is even possible that the President already has a successor in mind. And the danger is this; at the fullness of time, these PDP defectors, will form an unholy alliance with some politicians in APC and across the board, to thwart the President’s succession plan.

And that will be the end of the APC, and a new rising for the PDP. I’m not elated about the news of former senators, and even serving ones, defecting to the APC. Even if a governor from the opposition defects today, I will not celebrate it. I think the President should be leery and extremely cautious of these PDP defectors, and should not give them any serious responsibilities. Because at the appropriate time, they will manifest great evil and disaster against the President and the APC.”

Besides, the APC leader congratulated Seriake Dickson, the incumbent governor of Bayelsa state and the candidate of the PDP, on his re-election for another four years, while commending Chief Timipre Sylva of the APC for putting up a gallant fight.
