The Vice Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, South-East zone, Rev. Augustine Ehiemere, has reacted to the defection of Abia South Senator, Enyinnaya Abaribe, to the African Democratic Congress, ADC.
The APGA National Vice Chairman condemned the actions of politicians who defect to other political parties after using such platforms to realise their political ambitions.
“To me, APGA is a disciplined party and we are not perturbed by some of these chronic party defectors. APGA is a defender of principles of Democracy. The party will crow loudly and clearly in Abia and the South-East,” Rev. Ehiemere said.
According to him, many politicians who defect from parties that provided platforms for their political survival do so without contributing meaningfully to the building of those parties.
He called on the Independent National Electoral Commission to introduce firm policies to check the abuse of defection by Nigerian politicians.
Calls and messages sent to Uchenna Awom, the media aide to Senator Abaribe, on Wednesday evening, were neither returned nor replied to.
