Lagos - The O'odua Peoples Congress (OPC) has reacted to the defection of former aviation minister Femi Fani-Kayode to the All Progressives Congress (APC), saying the Yoruba nation should be ready to see many betrayers in the coming days.
The Yoruba group in a statement sent to Legit.ng by its publicity secretary, Yinka Oguntimehin, said Fani-Kayode's defection was never a surprise because "he had been romancing with" APC stalwarts all over the country.
Oguntimehin, however, urged those who felt disappointed by the ex-ministers move to be ready for more defections.
He said the Aare Onakakanfo of Yorubaland, Iba Gani Adams, had earlier predicted that "many people would show the stuff they were made of" ahead of 2023.

Oguntimehin said Iba Adams' prediction is now playing out with Fani-Kayode's defection, adding that many trusted allies of Yoruba race would soon join the train.
