The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has explained why its governors are jumping ship to join the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The opposition party explained that the President Muhammad’s Buhari led government is stifling PDP governors, making some of them who are not self-willed to join the APC.

Kola Ologbondiyan, spokesperson of the PDP said on Friday during an interview with Channels Television that the defecting governors are only submitting to the harassment of the ruling party.

He said this against the backdrop of the recent defection of Cross River Governor, Ben Ayade.

“The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, is not in distress. The unfortunate situation the nation has found itself is such that, whereas while the PDP was in governance it strived on social justice, equity, fairness and gave abundant room for the opposition to strive. Unfortunately we have a situation in our hands of which a ruling government is harassing and stifling the opposition.

“And it is in those circumstances that those who are not self-willed even though they are governors, are now submitting to the harassment of the All Progressives Congress and their machinations.
