Ugochinyere, Nwaogu Defect to APP from PDP and LP

On Tuesday, during a plenary session, Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere, a former member of the People's Democratic Party (PDP), and Mathew Nwaogu, previously with the Labour Party (LP), officially defected to the All Progressives Party (APP). The House Speaker, Rt.

Hon. Abba Tajudeen, read their letters of defection, which cited internal crises within their former parties as the primary reason for their decision to join APP.

The chairman of APP, Barr. Uch Nnadi, welcomed the new members during the plenary, describing their decision as a bold step toward strengthening democratic values and enhancing representation.

Nnadi assured that APP remains committed to providing a credible platform for progressive lawmakers dedicated to people-oriented governance. This development is expected to enhance the party's influence and legislative impact within the National Assembly, reaffirming APP's resolve to build a formidable political force anchored on accountability and service to national development.
