Rivers State SSG Joins APC Amid Political Defections

Benibo Anabraba, the Secretary to the Government of Rivers State, has resigned from the People's Democratic Party (PDP) and joined the All Progressives Congress (APC). His defection is part of a larger trend in Rivers State, with Governor Siminalayi Fubara and Deputy Governor Ngozi Odu also defecting.

This move comes amidst political tensions in the state, particularly between Governor Fubara and Nyesom Wike. Fubara's rumored APC membership is seen as a bid to secure a return to the government house in 2027, while Wike vows to thwart such ambitions, deepening the political divide in Rivers State.
