Former aviation minister Femi Fani-Kayode has hinted that Peoples Democratic Party governorship candidate in the 2019 polls, Jimi Agbaje, is set to join the All Progressives Congress.
Mr. Fani-Kayode who is not the most reliable source for information, tweeted on Wednesday that Mr. Agbaje was jumping ship to the ruling party.
He said Mr. Agbaje was going the way of former PDP chieftains Musiliu Obanikoro, a former Minister of State for Defence; Iyiola Omisore, a former senator and Otunba Gbenga Daniel, a former governor of Ogun state.
Obanikoro and Omisore have both formally joined the APC while Daniel is expected to do so in the coming weeks.
“First it was Musiliu Obanikoro, then Iyiola Omisore, then Gbenga Daniel and now Jimi Agbaje.
