Another PDP Rep defects to APC

Another member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the House of Representatives.

He is Mr. Johnson Agbonayinma from Edo State.

Agbonayinma was a member of the Ali Modu Sheriff faction before the Supreme Court recognised the then Senator Ahmed Makarfi faction as the authentic leadership of the party.

Only on Tuesday, a member of the PDP from Imo State, Mr. Raphael Igbokwe, had defected to the APC.

Agbonayinma  claimed, “The PDP has shut the door against me.”

Edo State Deputy Governor, Mr. Phillip Shuaibu, witnessed the defection.

Shuaibu was a member of the House.
