ONE OF THE governors, grappling with growing
hostility on the ground and mounting pressure from a senior state official, is
reportedly considering quitting the party altogether. Sources close to him supposedly say he is increasingly
frustrated by his dwindling re-election prospects, while the influential
official—said to be better connected within the party—has been relentlessly on
his case over unspecified issues. Members of the governor’s inner circle reveal
that he is now rethinking his 2027 game plan, which could include decamping to
alternative political formations. It remains to be seen whether this strategy
will help him overcome his perceived dismal performance record and the
corruption allegations dogging his administration.
