Iyabo Obasanjo, daughter of former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo, rejoins the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ogun State after leaving the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) within about a week. The reports say she had recently resigned from the APC and returned to the PDP, citing grievances behind her move. One outlet notes that she left the PDP for the APC in January and had stated that she intended to contest the Ogun State governorship election. The two accounts agree on the timing and the party switch, describing it as a reversal from APC back to PDP shortly after her departure. While the coverage includes references to reasons for leaving the APC, the details of those grievances are not presented in full in the excerpts provided. The re-entry into the PDP positions her again within the opposition party ahead of state-level political developments in Ogun State.
