AMAECHI'S KINSMEN DECAMP TO PDP IN RIVERS STATE

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is reaping from the crisis rocking the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State as over 200 members of the APC decamped to the PDP in Ubima, home town of the Minister of Transportation, and former Governor of Rivers State, Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi

State Chairman of the PDP, Bro. Felix Obuah, who expressed delight over the latest defection, said in a statement in Port Harcourt that the defection of the APC members was a welcomed development.
The decampees were led by Mr. Christian Ihua, former Chairman of the APC in Ward 8, Rotimi Amaechi’s ward in Ikwerre Local Government Area.

Obuah who saluted their courage in taking such bold step, said that the PDP had been vindicated in its position that the APC and its leader and Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, do not mean well for the people of Ubima and Rivers State in general.
Bro. Obuah said he would not agree less with the complaint of the decampees over Amaechi’s failure to attract any meaningful development to Rivers State as Minister of Transportation and engage the youths productively, noting that the former governor was synonymous with making unfulfilled promises as exemplified in his failure to attract Federal Government projects to the State.
