Tom IkimiOne of the national chairmanship aspirants in the recent concluded national convention of the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief Tom Ikimi has walked out on the party.
The dumping of the party climaxed weeks of speculation that he would leave and join the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) amidst crisis that has been rocking APC since the national convention in June this year.
In a statement today, Ikimi said: “I have made the decision to withdraw my membership from the All Progressives Congress (APC) from today, 27th August 2014.”
Chief Ikimi did not say where he would go from here, even as an opening has been made for the PDP to go canvassing for him to join the party.
