We’re not bothered by members’ defection to APC – Benue PDP

The Benue State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has expressed its lack of concern regarding the defection of its members to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

According to Mr. Bemgba Iortyom, the state PDP Publicity Secretary, who released a statement in Makurdi.

‘’PDP notes the departure to the APC of two of its officials, namely Mr. Yandev Amaabai, a National Ex-officio, and Mr. Mbakorlumun Chia, the state Vice-Chairman for Benue North-West Senatorial District.

“Both officials have been listed to be received into the ruling APC at a ceremony slated for Jan. 4 and the party wishes them well in their continuing political voyage,” Iortyom said.

He said that PDP understood that migration of politicians from the opposition to the ruling party had become a common feature in Nigeria’s politics.
