The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, has again attacked Senate President Bukola Saraki and others who joined the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Speaking on Thursday at the party’s 6th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting, Oshiomhole described the defectors as migrant politicians who had no political address.

He said: “Our party is stronger, smarter, more cohesive and there is no better evidence than the fact that we have won all the major elections after they left the party.

“We have seen people who go back to their communities to decamp and we see uncommon defectors.”

The former Edo State Governor stated that those defectors left the party to pursue their personal ambition which they believed they cannot realise in the APC.

“Though they were not denied the opportunity to try out that ambition, they arrived at the conclusion that the only way they can realise their ambitions was to relocate and they relocated.

“Of course, for a distant observer, he would think that this was a huge blow to our party.

“Those who defected from the APC have no political address, because they’ll keep moving from one party to another every season for the purpose of contesting elections,” he added.
