APC governors forum splits as Uzodimma faces rival faction

The Progressive Governors Forum has fractured into rival factions after reports emerged Thursday that Chairman Hope Uzodimma was removed. Uzodimma insists he remains PGF chairman, while Ogun Governor Dapo Abiodun and Kwara Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq lead a separate bloc.

The division comes amid growing internal tensions within APC leadership over control and strategic positioning ahead of the crucial 2027 general elections. Political analysts view this as a significant crack in the party's gubernatorial ranks at a critical time.

As of now, neither faction has released official statements detailing the exact cause of the split. The development signals potential realignments within the ruling party as it prepares for next year's elections.
