The Ogun State Publicity Secretary, All Progressives Congress, Mr. Sola Lawal, has said the party cannot prescribe any sanction yet for the deputy governor, Mr. Segun Adesegun, since he has not formally defected to the Social Democratic Party.

He said the deputy governor, in a telephone interview with our correspondent on Thursday, had not expressly said he had defected to the SDP.

Lawal said, We are not aware of the moves the deputy governor is making, either to defect to another party or not. At the party level, there is no document to show he has left the All Progressives Congress. All he said in the newspaper report today was that he would be where his leader (Chief Olusegun Osoba) is.

Even Chief Osoba has not disclosed where hes going, going by that report. Since he neither responded to the text message sent to him on the issue nor picked his telephone when you called him, I cannot tell you the sanction yet, let us wait until he finally defects.

The deputy governor was also silent on whether he would resign or not given the alleged injustices he claimed the governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, had meted on him and his office.

While he did not pick the calls made to his telephone line by our correspondent, he responded to the text message sent to him, asking whether he would resign.

No comments, the text read.

If at the end of the day the deputy governor finally announces his defection to the SDP, it would be difficult for the State House of Assembly to impeach him.

The House, which is made of 26 members, has been divided equally into two factions -13 members loyal to the governor and the other 13 making up the opposition.

The Republican takeover of the U.S. Senate majority really shouldnt matter much to progressives. Even when Democrats have the majority, precious little gets done in a body that lets a minority of members obstruct.

But never mind. A modern, future-oriented agenda has been advancing on the state level as progressive governors rush into the vacuum of inaction left by Washington. And its supporters are not just Democrats but also independents and Republicans who respect mainstream science and regard the working poor as something more than cheap labor.

Thus, we see victories for universal health coverage, higher minimum wages, the fight against climate change, slowing the war on drugs, and gay marriage. And with little thanks to Capitol Hill.

Massachusetts has run a universal health-care system for about eight years. Its plan was based on a conservative blueprint pushed through by a Republican governor, but when it surfaced as the model for the Affordable Care Act, the right disowned it.

Two important points: Massachusetts showed it could guarantee coverage while maintaining one of the nations strongest economies. And even without Obamacare, other states would have followed its example.

Obamacares biggest flaw is its complexity, largely the result of expensive giveaways to the medical industry. But now another progressive state, Vermont, is seeking a waiver to address that flaw with a modified single-payer plan. If Vermonts approach cuts the states medical spending by 25 percent without hurting quality of care as a Harvard study predicts, other states would do likewise.

Cap and trade reduces emissions of planet-warming gases by creating a market for them. It was another conservative idea, but when President Obamas Environmental Protection Agency proposed such a system, the Republican Congress turned on it.

California shrugged and created its own. At least 10 states have since adopted their own cap-and-trade programs.

Sacramento has long been the capital of American environmental policy. In 2004, California set fuel-economy standards higher than Washingtons. Soon other states embraced them, and before you knew it, 40 percent of the U.S. car market was under the California rules.

That left automakers with two choices: Build all cars to the tighter specifications or challenge Californias right to set them. They decided to challenge, running to the George W. Bush administration for relief, which they got.
