A top financier of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ovia South West local government area of Edo State, Goodluck Adenomo, has defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC) along with hundreds of his followers.

Speaking in Iguobazuwa, headquarters of the council during the inauguration of the APC campaign council in the local government area, Adenomo attributed his decision to leave the ruling party in the state to work for the re-election bid of Dennis Idahosa, the lawmaker representing the Ovia federal constituency.

He described as unprecedented, the development strides the lawmaker has attracted to the federal constituency.

He said Idahosa needs to be supported and encouraged to attract more development projects to Ovia.


“It is for this reason that I and my teeming supporters have decided to pitch tent with the APC to support the reelection of Idahosa.


“His performance in office within the space of three years remains an eye opener to us in Ovia because we have had lawmakers before him who didn’t come close to what he has done,” he stated.

Mr Emma Ogbomo, chairman of Ovia South West of the APC who received the defectors, commended Adenomo for the step.

He said his coming alongside his supporters would no doubt add value to the support base the party had enjoyed from the federal constituency.

“We are indeed happy with your coming and want you all to know that you will be accorded same privileges and rights like the old members,” he stated.

Receiving the decampees, the party chairman in Ovia south west, Emma Ogbomo commended Mr Goodluck Adenomo, describing his entrance as the right time. The former chairman of the local government, Hon. Monday Aighobahi, was inaugurated as the campaign director general..

In a related development,The Acting Odionwere (Community Head) of Iguokolor, Ora ward, Ovia South West Local Government of Edo State, Pa Sunday Owamagbe alongside hundreds of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) members have dumped the party for the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Pa Sunday who spoke on behalf of other decampees said they decided to join the progressive family because of the giant strides of Hon. Dennis Idahosa in the last three and half years as member representing ovia federal constituency.

They promised to mobilize massive support for Idahosa and every other candidates of the APC.

Idahosa in his response, appreciated their decision to join and swell the progressive family more in Ora ward, and promised to attract more transformational projects for the good of the people of the constituency.
