House of Reps member, Chris Nkwonta (Abia-PDP) defects to APC by Ofunaofu(op): 12:47pm On Oct 02, 2024
Chris Nkwonta, an Abia lawmaker in the House of Representatives, has defected from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to the All Progressives Congress, APC.

Nkwonta announced his defection on Wednesday in a letter the Speaker, Abbas Tajudeen, read on the floor of the House.

The lawmaker represents Ukwa East/Ukwa West Federal Constituency Abia of Abia state.

However, the Deputy Minority Leader, Aliyu Madaki protested the defection, citing Order 68 of the 1999 Constitution.

Madaki said the a lawmaker can only dump the party that sponsored his election if there is crisis in the party.

His point of order was ruled out of order by the Speaker, who said there is crisis in the PDP.

“The information available to me shows there is a faction,” the Speaker said to cheers from the APC bench.

COMRADES, this is good and commendable because PDP is not yet ready to become an opposition political party
As long as they allow Wike to remain in charge they should expect more defections

Reason why masses should not die for any politician because political affliatiion. They are same of the same. Apc, pdp, LP, NNpP and the others.
They hold that political position because of their selfish interest not for the betterment of masses.
