Jimi agbaje denies dumping pdp

A recent development in Nigerian politics!

According to reports, Jimi Agbaje, the former governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State, has denied rumors that he has defected from the party.

In a statement released on Tuesday, Agbaje's media aide, Felix Oboagwina, said that the rumors of his defection were "baseless and unfounded". The statement added that Agbaje remains a loyal member of the PDP and has not taken any steps to leave the party.

It's worth noting that Agbaje has been a vocal critic of the PDP leadership in recent times, particularly with regards to the party's handling of the 2023 governorship election in Lagos State. However, his denial of defection suggests that he may still be exploring options within the party to address his grievances.

The development comes as the PDP is facing internal crises and defections in several states ahead of the 2023 general elections.
