All Progressives Congress chieftain, Chief Bisi Akande, has warned the party to ba wary of defectors from the Peoples Democratic Party so as not to die the same death as the former ruling party.
Akande said he has never defected from the progressive party while adding that defection is usually carried out by parasites.
The former interim Chairman of the APC stated this while speaking with journalists at his residence in Ila Orangun on Saturday, when he celebrated his 77th birthday.
“We in the APC should be careful, the defection is not a strange thing but I know it is always done by parasites. I have always remained in one line of politics. I have never defected and I will never defect; I will remain in that progressive polity.”
“But those who are defecting from one party to the other, by nature, they are political parasites. They have killed the original host, which was the PDP, and they are now coming to the APC, which is the new host. It is for the APC to gird its own loins and prevent the parasites from killing the party, because a parasite has no root of its own but feeds on the little food that the host has.”
“So, running away from the PDP to the APC looks good but the APC must be careful in dealing with those parasites.”
