Publisher of Ovation Magazine, Dele Momodu, has accused the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, of forcing the opposition to join them.
Momodu made the allegation on Friday while responding to questions in an interview on Arise Television, monitored by DAILY POST.
This comes after several prominent members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, defected to the APC.
DAILY POST reports that Governor Peter Mbah of Enugu State and his Bayelsa counterpart, Douye Diri, recently defected from the PDP.
Reacting to the mass defection, Momodu said, “The APC is cajoling and coercing opposition to join them.
“I’m beginning to feel Nigerians have been ‘jazzed’ by some politicians because the behaviour and misdemeanour do not appear normal to me.
“People who have no business whatsoever, imagine a second term governor. Where are you running to? Where are you running away from?
“For me, it’s a combination of so many things. There are those ones who want jollification. So those ones will go where the power is. You know the Federal Government of Nigeria is more powerful than the American president,” he said.
