Mass defection hits APC over Supreme Court judgment


Mass defection has hit the camp of Rivers state chapter of the All progressives Congress (APC) sequel to the Supreme Court judgment which upheld the election of Nyesom Wike as the Rivers state governor.
Governor Nyesom Wike has described his victory at the Supreme Court as an act of God.
The chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Rivers state, Felix Obuah who described the defection of some APC members into the party as unprecedented said the party would welcome back some of its members who left due to fear that the Supreme Court verdict will favour the APC.
According to The Punch, Obuah in a statement issued on Sunday January 31, promised that the PDP will welcome back its former members “like the father of the prodigal son”.
He said: “The mass defection of APC members into the PDP in less than five days after the Supreme Court judgment is unprecedented. The PDP would not only give the returning members a befitting reception, but would also carry them along in the scheme of things. Like the father of the prodigal son, the PDP will accept them back and carry them along.”
