RIVERS GOVERNOR FUBARA JOINS APC, DUMPS PDP
A dramatic political realignment on Tuesday, Siminalayi Fubara, governor of Rivers State, officially defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC)
Governor Fubara’s decision follows the recent mass defection of 16-17 members of the State House of Assembly to the APC — a move that dramatically shifted the legislature’s balance of power.
An aide to the governor confirmed that Fubara had accepted APC’s overtures and will now lead the party’s affairs in Rivers State. The development is expected to ignite fresh political tensions, especially among remaining PDP loyalists.
