Another PDP Senator Decamps To APC


The All Progressives Congress (APC) has made another big catch from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), this time in Enugu State.

Senator Ayogu Eze, a former Senator and (PDP) governorship aspirant in 2015 elections, has defected from the PDP to the APC.

Daily Sun has reported  that Eze, a two-time senator, had engaged in intensive consultation with political associates, stakeholders in Enugu and APC before defecting to the ruling party.

According to the report, he has been registered as a member of the APC in his ward, and that a planned grand reception is being prepared to formally welcome him into the party.

Senator Eze’s membership of the APC caused wild jubilation in the party, as members see him as a strong force in Enugu, especially as they believe that his entry will give a push to the campaign to dislodge the PDP in Enugu State.

Political watchers say Eze’s entry will alter political calculations in the state ahead of 2019 general election.

Associates of the Senator told our reporters that it took a lot on their part to convince him to switch loyalty to the APC, arguing that their selling point was emphasis on the need to take Enugu State back to the mainstream of Nigerian politics as a way of ending the cry of marginalisation by the people.

The report further stated that the former Senator is joining other notable sons of Enugu, like former governor of old Anambra State, Chief Jim Nwobodo; former governor of Enugu State, Sullivan Chime; former Senate President, Chief Ken Nnamani and many others, who have decamped from PDP to APC.

Senator Eze confirmed joining the APC, when contacted by the Daily Sun yesterday.
