Ex-Deputy Speaker Lasun Yusuf has dumped the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) Peter Obi for the candidate of People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Abubakar Atiku.
Yusuf was elected to the All Progressives Congress (APC) before defecting to LP. The 2022 Osun LP governorship candidate has promised Obi to deliver Osun in 2023.
On Wednesday, Yusuf during the PDP presidential campaign in Osogbo capital of Osun State at Freedom Park, the flag of the party was presented by the National Chairman, Senator Iyorchia Ayu to the ex-Deputy Speaker.
Yusuf prayed that Atiku will emerge as the winner of the 2023 presidential poll.
Ayu urged Osun residents to vote out APC and restore hope for the country by voting for PDP.
He said: “We are the hope of the future, things went bad under Buhari of APC. PDP is the best to restore the good fortune of Nigeria.”
Atiku commended Osun voters for returning PDP to power and also tasked them to replicate the same in 2023.
