Former Minister Joel Danlami Ikenya Defects from APC to PDP in Taraba State

Former Minister Joel Danlami Ikenya has defected from the APC to the PDP in Taraba State, emphasizing his commitment to the PDP as the instrument for his political rise. Ikenya, a prominent grassroots politician, made the announcement in a letter, expressing his loyalty to the PDP where his political career was established.

His defection is seen as a significant loss to the APC, particularly in the southern part of Taraba State. Governor Kefa's efforts to retain Ikenya in the APC were unsuccessful.
