Professor Nentawe Yilwatda, the National Chairman of the All Progressive Congress (APC), revealed during a meeting with Plateau APC stakeholders at Crest Hotel, Jos, that several notable politicians from opposing parties are set to join the ruling APC soon.

Yilwatda said, “Next week, I will be receiving some notable figures from the ADC. Some of those who had defected from PDP have reached out to ADC and are now returning to APC. Many of them have completed their ‘medicals’ and will be officially unveiled next week.”

He added that in the following weeks, the APC will unveil “yet another big figure who just finished his own ‘medicals.’

He tried to unveil himself the day before yesterday, you probably saw it in the news. But officially, we’ll be receiving him soon.”

Highlighting the growing strength of the party, Yilwatda stated, “More people are coming. More senators are joining; more governors, more members of the National Assembly. The APC is the bride of the moment.”

Reflecting on past challenges, he expressed gratitude to supporters: “Many people thought that was the end of APC on the Plateau; that we had been buried politically. But what they didn’t see was the seed that had already been sown. That seed germinated, and today, APC is stronger, more vibrant and growing bigger by the day.”
