PDP Vice Chair Reveals Reasons Behind Governors and Senators Defecting to APC

PDP Vice Chair, Orbih, addressed the reasons behind defections of governors, senators, and others to APC during a congress in Benin. The defections, including those of governors Umo Eno and Sheriff Oborevwori, are attributed to the prolonged internal crisis within PDP.

Orbih highlighted a leadership crisis at the national level, leading to prominent members leaving the party. The faction loyal to Minister Nyesom Wike conducted a parallel congress, emphasizing the challenges faced by PDP in retaining key figures.

The ongoing political shifts reflect the instability within PDP and the growing influence of APC in attracting prominent political figures.
