The trend of defections from opposition parties to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) appears to be continuing, with more governors reportedly preparing to switch allegiance.
Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori’s recent move to the APC, along with his cabinet, has added to the speculation surrounding the 2027 general election.
According to Nasarawa State Governor Abdullahi Sule, Oborevwori’s defection is not an isolated incident, and other governors are also planning to join the APC.

“I don’t know the number, but we are expecting [more governors to join the APC],” the Nasarawa governor said on Thursday while fielding questions on Channels Television’s Politics Today.
“You have a lot of people who have shown interest – even among the governors, you know – who are coming into the APC,” the APC chieftain said.
According to Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State, the increasing number of prominent politicians joining the APC demonstrates their admiration for the reforms being implemented by President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
Governor Sule stated that numerous politicians across the country are impressed by the President’s leadership and have already expressed their desire to become members of the ruling party.
“When we are meeting with the president, you see the excitement among them,” he said.
Governor Sule stated that the governors feel “accepted by this president, and they like him.”
