By: Labaran Ahmed In a shocking move, Professor Patrick Sunday Dakum, the CEO of the Institute of Human Virology Nigeria (IHVN), has announced his decision to leave the Labour Party and join the All Progressives Congress (APC). According to a press statement signed by his media consultant, Shabul Mazadu, Dakum's defection is slated for May 27, 2025. The statement cited the Labour Party's leadership crisis and the Peoples Democratic Party's decline as reasons for Dakum's decision. Additionally, Mazadu noted that Dakum's expertise in public health aligns with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's health reforms, making the APC a more suitable platform for him.

The event will be attended by APC and Labour Party members, stakeholders from Pankshin South and Plateau Central Senatorial Zone, and other key figures.
