Labour Party Senator Defects to APC Amid Internal Crisis Turmoil

Senator Chukwu of the Labour Party has defected to the APC, citing internal crises and factionalization within his former party. The senator announced his decision during a town hall meeting in Amuri Community, Nkanu West Local Government Area.

This move is seen as a strategic political decision to ensure effective representation amidst party challenges. Former state chairman of the APC, Ben Nwoye, commended the senator's defection, highlighting its potential benefits for both the lawmaker and his constituents.

Chukwu's defection adds to a growing list of Labour Party members switching to the APC in Enugu State, underscoring the deepening challenges faced by the Labour Party in the region.
