A former Minister of State for Defence, Senator Musiliu Obanikoro, has said his defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), was a homecoming for him.
Obanikoro said this on Saturday in Lagos while formally announcing his defection.
In his speech titled, ‘The Exigency of Time and the Dynamism of Politics’, the former PDP chieftain said he has returned to his natural habitat.
“To me and to all my associates, it is a return to our natural habitat. This (APC) is my home. My political voyage started from this association and I am proud to have learnt under our great leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu. The late Chief Obafemi Awolowo is the greatest politician of all time and I make bold to say the greatest politician of our time is Tinubu.
“At this stage of my life, it is important for me to return to my original base and be part of the giant strides being achieved in Lagos State which would not have been possible without the sagacity of the architect of our modern democracy – my indefatigable boss, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu,” Obanikoro said.
