Six members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the Lagos state house of assembly have defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
In a letter dated February 16, signed by the defectors and read by the acting Clark of the House, Azeez Sani, the lawmakers said they were taking the step due to the division and infighting which had factionalised their party.
The lawmakers are Akeem Bello (Amuwo Odofin II), Mosunmola Sangodara (Surulere II), Jude Idimogu (Oshodi/Isolo II), Dayo Famakinwa (Ajeromi Ifelodun II), Oluwa Fatai (Ajeromi/Ifelodun I) and Olusola Sokunle (Oshodi/Isolo I).
