In a significant political development, Dr. Azeez Adeduntan, the former Commissioner for Health in Oyo State, has announced his departure from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and rejoined the All Progressive Congress (APC).
The defection ceremony took place at the APC state secretariat, where Dr. Adeduntan expressed his dissatisfaction with the current administration led by Governor Seyi Makinde. He highlighted that despite the efforts he and his supporters made to bring the administration into power during last year’s general elections, they have not seen any benefits from their hard work.
Dr. Adeduntan, a renowned cardiovascular surgeon, had previously left the APC just weeks before the 2023 governorship election, citing fraudulent primary processes at all levels. This was not the first time such a situation occurred; a similar incident took place in 2019 when Adebayo Adelabu, the current Power Minister, emerged as the party’s gubernatorial candidate.
