The Majority Leader of the Ogun State House of Assembly, Adeyinka Mafe, on Tuesday, announced his return from the Allied Peoples Movement to the  All Progressives Congress.


Mafe, who represents Sagamu Constituency I, announced his return through the withdrawal of his defection letter during plenary.

The lawmaker, in the withdrawal letter read by the Speaker of the House of Assembly, Suraj Adekunbi, said he had returned to the APC.

He said, “I had earlier written a letter to announce my defection from the APC to the APM.

“I hereby write to officially withdraw the letter and wish to notify the House that I remain a member of the APC’s next level.”

Mafe and three other members of the House of Assembly had on November 29, 2018 resigned their membership of the APC and defected to the APM.

The lawmakers announced their defection in separate letters read by the speaker during plenary.

The three other defectors were the Chief Whip, Idowu Olowofuja (Abeokuta South II); Ganiyu Oyedeji (Ifo II); and Tunde Sanusi (Obafemi Owode).
