Third PDP Governor to Defect to APC in Enugu State, Political Realignment Continues

Peter Mbah, a PDP governor, is set to defect to the APC in Enugu State, becoming the third governor to do so after Sheriff Oborevwori and Umo Eno. The defection is part of ongoing political realignments in preparation for the 2027 general elections.

The APC has been working to strengthen its presence in the South East region, with key party officials hinting at Mbah's defection. The move comes amidst efforts to restructure the parties and produce new leaders following the recent PDP national convention in Ibadan.
