BREAKING: Enugu Gov Mbah dumps PDP for APC

Governor Peter Mbah of Enugu State has officially defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Mbah made the announcement in a televised address on Tuesday, marking a major political shift in the South-East region.

The governor, who was elected under the PDP platform, said his decision to join the APC was driven by a desire to align with the federal government for the accelerated development of Enugu State.

“Today, after a long reflection, we have made the decision to leave the Peoples Democratic Party and join the All Progressives Congress,” the Governor said.

Mbah explained that his decision to join the PDP was informed by the need to reshape Enugu and reorganise the politics of the state.

“Today, I stand before you to announce a break from the past and to share a decision that will shape the road ahead.

“This concerns our values, how we organize ourselves politically and how we secure the future of our project and our people.

“Leadership sometimes demands painful decisions in the service of higher principles and goals.

“And there comes a time, when everyone must make a bold choice to determine their destiny,” he further noted.
