A former aid to Kwara State Governor,Comrade Musbaudeen Esinrogunjo has officially decamp from the All Progressive Congress (APC) to the People's Democratic Party (PDP).
The popular grassroots mobilizer and Ilorin Born Politician announced his defection on Saturday at his office in Ilorin, the capital of Kwara State.
His defection is coming weeks after his resignation as the Special assistant on Rural mobilization to the Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq.
Esinrogunjo had on 31st of October, 2022, tendered his resignation letter to the Governor through the Secretary to the State Government, Prof. Mamman Shaba Jubril.
According to him, "Politics is not religion, we are all clamoring for Otoge in 2019, am not convinced with what we are witnessing today in Kwara state and with that I have made my mind with thousands of my followers to leave APC to come back to PDP a great party.
"Change is constant in life and at a point in time when things are not going fine, you have every power and every audacity to leave a party to another party.
Esinrogunjo further explained that his defection to PDP was an act of obeying the will of his parent and family as well as the hard times he had faced in APC as SSA to the Imcubent governor.
"Anybody who wants to grow in life must face some challenges but the ability to stand firm makes you a leader, as far as I am concerned today I want to authoritatively thank the entire members of PDP in Kwara state, today that I have joined PDP, 2023 is a victorious for us Insha Allah and I will repeat this in 2023 after the election."
He therefore called on all PDP members to get prepared, saying that "PDP don't tolerate thugerry, we don't tolerate violence and we will do our campaign door to door the way we did it for Otoge in 2019. Election is not about violence it is about carrying the goodwill messages to the people. We are tired of bad governance in Kwara that's why I decide to join the moving train of PDP to bring the good governance back to power."
The former students leader who is from Ilorin West Local Government area of the state, was a former local government chairmanship candidate of Ilorin West, and a grassroots mobiliser for the Otoge movement in 2019.
However, before his defection, Esinrogunjo was a former National Vice Chairman of the National Association of Nigerian Students; National Vice President of the National Association of Kwara State Students; chairman of the NANS/Joint Campus Committee (NANS/JCC) Kwara State; Speaker of the Youths Association of Nigeria; a member of the APC Presidential Campaign Council’s National Directorate of Youth Mobilisation; and a member of the Kwara State Transition Implementation Committee (2019).
