He wants to run for governor and the governor already wanted to replace him with his elder brother, his defection was expected.

Re: BREAKING: PDP Senator Defects To APC by Nobody: 3:15pm On Jul 05, 2018
Nothing can make the governor decamp, this is a one off case, this guy is disillusioned with PDP, plus you know about Politicians and their quest for power. PDP will rule Ebonyi for a very long time, the last governor was defeated roundly when he decamped to Labour Party. overambition will be the ruin of this particular senator, there is no vacancy in government house.

no vacancy say Dave Umahi PA.....

what I know is that Ebonyi state under Umahi has been playing hausa fulani politics....Buhari errand....

All his recent actions is geared towards causing unrest and disunity....but before he will succeed in his plans....Ebonyi state might have been shipped to north under arewa.....


Igbos unity must be preserved......Umahi and ebonyi plans for destabilisation won't work....we must resist them...

ogundeleai:
It's just a template to prepare Umahi and by extention cross river governor... The duo have such inexplicable affection for Mr president...
Ogundele, these are the reasons Benedict Ayade of Cross River state and David Umahi of Ebonyi state like Buhari:

CROSS RIVER STATE

1. Cross River state was the first-ever state visited by Buhari after was sworn in as President in 2015. He also visited again a few weeks ago, making that state the ONLY state in the South-South and South-East regions that Buhari had visited officially twice in 3 years.

2. In the entire history of Cross River state, the state had never had this number of high-ranking Federal Govt appointees at the same time during ANY Federal Government in history, an issue Ayade always publicly mention when praising Buhari. These are some of them:

a. Head of Service of the Federation

b. Chief of the Naval Staff (CoNS) of the Nigerian Navy

c. Auditor-General of the Federation (in spite of several maliciously tainted petitions against him prior to his appointment by Buhari, some of the petitions came from other South-South states who wanted the appointment given to their states instead of considering merit)

d. Chief Justice of the Federation: (some might think that this was not a favour just because Onoghen was the most senior; but they are wrong because there have been several precedents of the most senior Supreme Court Justice (SCJ) ignored and forcefully retired to pave way for junior SCJsto who were appointed as Chief Justice of the Federation

e. Senior Minister, Minister of Federal Ministry of Niger Delta

f. Several Federal Permanent Secretaries, Heads of parastatals, etc

EBONYI STATE

1. Buhari specifically approved huge funds for the CBN Farmers' Anchor Borrowers' Programme to farmers (especially rice farmers) in Ebonyi state despite being a PDP opposition state. Umahi always referred to this.

2. The Federal Ministry of Works has refunded huge funds spent by the state to repair Federal Roads without considering it being a PDP state, contrary to the approach of Jonathan who refused to refund non-PDP state governments.

3. Sensing Buhari's positive body language to Umahi, Umahi's former boss, immediate past Governor who was Governor from 200-2015 when Umahi was Deputy Governor, but who he never wanted to succeed him as Governor, had not been able to deal with Umahi as he promised to do when he decamped to APC just before the 2015 elections.

If the history of PDP Federal Government stylishly encouraging opposition Governors (especially old ANPP Governors) to decamp to the ruling PDP before general elections is to hold true, there is a high possibility that these two Governors (Ayade and Umahi) may likely defect to APC or both may look the other way for Buhari to get thousands of votes even when they will expectedly protect their local PDP votes in Governorship and State Assembly elections.

Another Governor that is likely to work for Buhari in 2019 is Willie Obiano of Anambra state. He quickly visited Aso Rock Villa to specifically thank Buhari for not using “federal might” of soldiers, policemen, and DSS during the Anambra elections as PDP used to do in the past. He stated this on national TV when he was asked why he visited Buhari just a few days after his re-election in Anambra.

I have an inkling that arm-chair analysts on social media who are hating on Buhari regarding 2019 election are in for a huge shocker! A lot of elected leaders across parties will work for his re-election in 2019 and he will likely win a 2nd term!
Re: BREAKING: PDP Senator Defects To APC by maestroferddi: 3:32pm On Jul 05, 2018
It should read" Ebonyi South senator who was denied a return ticket by PDP has gone for broke by joining APC".

Buhari na bad market in the South East...

Stop talking trash.

I am presently in Cross River. Ayade will be sounding his death knell is he makes the slightest move to move to APC.
The hatred for the party here is massive.

PDP is totally in charge in Cross River. No cause for alarm.

It's people like u that are problem to igbo unity. Is there no apc senetorial, governorship etc candidates from other states in igbo states? Criticize the fool who choose to defeat and leave ebonyians.
Note: he may be dancing that way cos he think he may loose his seat as a pdp candidate. And of cos he will put a fight not to die a coward

,You truly made viable points here..... I want to believe the 3 Governors place development above political sentiment which others felt short.... I wonder if sum of over 200bn contracts awarded only yesterday for 2nd Niger Bridge ever happen anywhere in the part of the country... I just pray the youth being cajoled will be able to know between right and left when it matters most..
Re: BREAKING: PDP Senator Defects To APC by VALIZUGOD(m): 5:30pm On Jul 05, 2018
Worst decision.
Thank God he discovered himself that his seat is vacant and another will take come 2019.
