PDP Faces Defection Threat as Lawmakers Demand Transparency
Over 20 lawmakers from the People's Democratic Party (PDP) are considering defection due to grievances with the party leadership's alleged support for All Progressives Congress (APC) candidates. The lawmakers, including spokesperson Hon Ikenga Imo Ugochinyer, accuse the PDP of betraying loyal members by backing APC nominees like Enugu State Governor Peter Mbah.
They demand fair and transparent internal democracy within the party ahead of the 2027 general elections. The lawmakers warn of leaving the party if their concerns are not addressed promptly.
