Join APC Now Or Risk Losing Your Seat In 2027, Yilwatda Warns PDP Govs

Governors under the platform of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) have been warned to join the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) or risk losing their seats in 2027.

National chairman of the APC, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, gave the warning while presenting the APC flag to Governor Agbu Kefas at a defection ceremony in his honour in Jalingo yesterday.

He said, “Envisage that, the PDP will not only sink them into a deep ocean, it will destroy their political futures if they remain in the party.”

Prof. Yilwatda said the decision to join the party was not wrong anyway, neither was it a mistake.

According to him, shifting cultivation is the right thing he has done, shifting from the sinking PDP.

He said being in the APC was an assurance that Taraba is safe, without using a life jacket.

“The move from PDP to APC is the biggest achievement he has done for the people of Taraba, shifting and aligning with the federal government and what President Tinubu is doing at the center so that all the benefits at the center will come to Taraba State,” he said.

He stressed that, very soon the people will begin to see the benefits of moving to the progressive ship.

“Mr. Governor, you have done nothing wrong and we welcome you to this biggest house, where I can say proudly that, in my father’s house there are many missions that will accommodate the governor and the people of Taraba State, that will accommodate even the remnant of PDP left.

“We are giving you a life line. The time to come back and be saved and join the biggest ship of Noah, the time is now. Come and be saved, come and be part of the center, don’t destroy your political future by remaining in the sinking ship.

“Come and align with the center to be part and parcel of the government that we are forming in 2027,” Prof Yilwatda said.
