Lagos PDP Rep, Nwulu Defects To UPP by kahal29: 8:30pm On Jul 24, 2018
A Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) member of the House of Representatives representing Oshodi/Isolo Federal Constituency of Lagos State, and sponsor of the "Not Too Young to Run" bill, Tony Nwulu, has defected to the United Progressives Party (UPP).

The Imo State born lawmaker said his decision was in line with Section 68(g) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended) and his bid to run for Imo State governorship seat in 2019.

"From today, I have resigned my membership of the PDP and joined the UPP. This is in accordance with Section 68(g) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended)

"My choice of UPP is after due scrutiny and consultation as UPP remains the only party that will give young Nigerians the opportunity they seek."

"As you know, I am running for the governorship seat of Imo State in 2019, and I believe this is the right platform for me," Nwulu told journalists.

Asked if there was crisis in PDP, he added: "There has always been crisis in the PDP unless you don't want to admit it; in fact, crisis will never leave them."

There's more crisis in APC that the one in PDP seems like a mild issue.

Re: Lagos PDP Rep, Nwulu Defects To UPP by PearlStreet(m): 8:40pm On Jul 24, 2018
UPP, not even APGA.

What happened to Nwulu is that he won the last elections in Oshodi Isolo Federal Constituency due to Federal might at that time and the large number of Igbo voters in that particular constituency.

Last year, Tony Nwulu and the Igbo members of the Lagos House of Assembly tried to decamp to the APC but were not allowed to decamp. They were told to remain in PDP and prepare to face the APC in 2019. They tried to beg Tinubu and others but were unsuccessful.

APC shouldn't worry after PDP primaries then they'll know that they fetched an infested fire wood. Atiku, Shekarau,Lamido,Kwankwaso,Saraki,Bafarawa, Tambuwal, Tanimu Tukur, Dankwambo and Markarfi all in one party seeking for one ticket.

Oshiomhole should be mindful with his choice of word to avoid more problem in APC especially the beef with Ngige is uncalled for, Oshiomhole has an ego problem as a matter of urgency he should enrol on a diplomacy course.
