There are indications that some displeased leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party from the South-West may decamp into the Action Congress of Nigeria.

The leaders of the PDP from the zone, it was further learnt, are opposed to the desire of the governors from the three states to impose their candidates on the party in the general election.
