[VIDEO] We Have 31 Govs In APC, More Are Coming — Gov Okpebholo •

Ahead of the 2027 general elections, Governor Monday, Okpebholo of Edo State, has urged President Tinubu not to worry about campaigning for his re-election in the state.

Okpebholo spoke when he received defectors from opposition political parties in Benin City, the state capital, on Wednesday.

Watch the video below.

He disclosed that while the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has 31 serving governors, more were expected to join the party.

The political grip of the APC in the North was strengthened with the recent defection of three governors from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and one from the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).

They include governors Agbu Kefas (Taraba State), Caleb Manasseh (Plateau State), Ahmadu Fintiri (Adamawa), and Abba Yusuf (Kano).

The PDP has been embroiled in an internal leadership crisis, a challenge that has led to division and the defection of some of its members, including National Assembly members, to other parties.

However, the party maintains that it remains a formidable oppostion.
