Former Ekiti Governor Dr. Kayode Feyemi has reaffirmed his loyalty to the ruling party, denying reports from all Progressive Congress (APC) suggesting his asylum.
In a statement addressing speculation, Feyemi described herself as a “member of the APC’s card carrying foundation,” emphasising that his political loyalty remains unchanged.
Reaffirming his commitment to the APC, Feyemi acknowledged the need for improved internal democracy and inclusion within the party.
“I was a pioneer in demand for greater internal democracy and inclusion in the ruling party. I don’t think our party is behind the scenes of changing courses and moving towards greater inclusion and internal democracy,” he said.
Feyemi’s remarks arise amid speculation about the internal division within the APC as some party members explore alternative political platforms ahead of the 2027 general election. However, his statement shows his continued commitment to strengthening the party from within, rather than seeking an exit.
Naija News understands that reports emerged on Monday that Feyemi, along with other political heavyweights, are planning to abandon the APC for the Social Democrats (SDP).
This followed the exile of former Kaduna governor Nasir El Rufai from the ruling APC to the SDP.
