Former Lagos State Deputy Governor Femi Pedro yesterday joined the All Progressives Congress (APC).
He said he shared the same desire to improve the lot of Nigerians through the APC.
In a statement by his Special Assistant, Media Strategy, Lanre Anjolaiya, Pedro said: “Our dear country, more than ever before, is in dire need of purposeful leadership committed to leading us out of the woods; and one for which all men of good conscience must join hands. The task of nation building no doubt comes with challenges and always at great personal costs; yet it must be fulfilled by genuine patriots. After series of discussions between Otunba Pedro and the national leadership of the APC, it was clear that they mutually share the desire to see Nigeria become great again.
“Otunba Pedro is convinced beyond doubt that the APC offers that veritable platform to put Nigeria back along the path of glory and prosperity. For this reason, I am delighted to announce that Otunba Pedro has formally declared for the APC. He left the PDP with his teeming supporters and party stalwarts across the Southwest to partner the party of the progressives – APC – towards the attainment of these noble objectives.”
