Enugu Governor Peter Mbah Set to Join APC, Dealing Blow to PDP
Enugu Governor Peter Mbah's decision to join APC from PDP has caused a stir in Nigerian politics, particularly in the South East. The move comes amidst deepening cracks within PDP and the dissolution of the Enugu state work committee.
Mbah is expected to officially defect next week, aligning with APC members at various levels. The defection is seen as a blow to PDP's stronghold in the region, especially after the failure to ratify Sunday Udeh Okoy as the South East's senatorial candidate.
The South East PDP has warned against members leaving the party, urging a reconsideration of relationships.
