APC Loses 150 Members To PDP In Abuja
More than 150 members of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) defected to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kuje Area Council, FCT.
The defection took place on Monday.
The defectors handed over their APC membership cards, brooms, and posters in replacement for the umbrella of the PDP.
Godwin Poyi, leader of the defectors and former Kuje APC chairman, stated that they were dissatisfied by the approach of APC policies in their area.
“We decided to join the PDP to contribute to the development of Kuje Area Council and the country as a whole.
“Our stay in APC has not been encouraging. APC policies and approach have not encouraged democracy and governance in the area council,” he said.
Receiving the defector, the Chairman of PDP in Kuje Area Council, Ismaila Mohammed, said more defectors were still coming to the party to develop democracy in Kuje.
Mr Mohammed added that PDP would clinch the chairmanship position come 2022 in Kuje Area Council to develop the area and the country.
