His exit from the APC comes amid a wave of defections by key Buhari-era appointees and former governors, including ex-Minister of Transportation Rotimi Amaechi, former Attorney-General Abubakar Malami, ex-Osun State Governor Rauf Aregbesola, former Chief of Air Staff Saddique Abubakar, and ex-Aviation Minister Hadi Sirika.

Former Minister of Police Affairs Alhaji Adamu Maina Waziri has also defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to join the ADC.
