Why I Dumped PDP for APC – Ogun Lawmaker

A member of the Ogun State House of Assembly, Rasheed Kashamu, representing Ijebu North Constituency I, has defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Kashamu announced his defection on Monday during plenary, attributing his decision to deepening divisions, factional disputes, and unresolved leadership crises within the PDP at both the state and national levels.

Reading his defection letter, the Speaker of the House, Oludaisi Elemide, confirmed that the lawmaker formally resigned from the PDP to join the ruling APC.

Kashamu said his move was also driven by his desire to align with other progressives in Ogun State to support Governor Dapo Abiodun’s ISEYA Agenda and President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.

He stated that after consultations with his political leaders and supporters, they agreed to defect collectively to the APC to strengthen the party and promote good governance in the state.

The lawmaker disclosed that he had officially joined the APC at his Oke Sopen Ward in Ijebu-Igbo, alongside supporters from across Ijebu North Local Government Area.
