He had earlier joined the major opposition party in the state shortly after the last election.
Speaking with newsmen, Phillips said he had joined his political forces with that of PDP having been convinced that PDP is well placed to rule Ogun State and Nigeria come 2027.
He vowed that there is a need to rescue Ogun and in Nigeria from “clueless leadership who are impoverishing Nigerians on a daily basis with needless and hardship policies.”
Phillips said “We all witnessed what happened in Ogun State during the last governorship election. We knew who truly won the mandate of the people, but sadly it has ended the way it did.
