Mass exodus hits APC, LP, NNPP as over 5,000 members decmap to PDP in Benue

A large number of defectors from various political parties, including the All Progressives Congress (APC), Labour Party (LP), New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), and Social Democratic Party (SDP), have joined the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Okpokwu Local Government Area of Benue State.

The defectors blamed the ruling party for poor performance and failure to address the security situation in the state, from the federal to the state level.

Speaking at the defection event on Monday, leaders of the group, including Onah Idoko Alexander, John Adole, Engr. Adegbo Moses, Mike Ejeba, Ocheme Candidus, and Abah Ejeh, said the ruling APC has failed woefully.

They hailed Senator Abba Moro for his developmental strides across Benue South. They described him as a rare leader who has positively impacted almost every community in the district.

“We are defecting to your party from several political parties because of the quality leadership and representation you are providing in the Senate. You have touched almost every community in Benue South, and we have realized that there is no leader like you,” the defectors said.

An elated Senator Moro welcomed the new PDP members, assuring them of equal rights and opportunities within the party.

He reiterated his commitment to providing effective leadership and representation for the overall good of Benue South.

The defection event, which had a carnival-like atmosphere, was attended by key political figures, including the Minority Leader of the Benue State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Mike Audu, and the Okpokwu Local Government PDP Chairman, Hon. Christopher Okpabi, among other dignitaries.
