Female Senator Nkechi Nwaogu Dumps PDP, Joins APC

One of the vibrant voices in the 7th senate of the federal republic of Nigeria, Senator Nkechi Nwaogu, has dumped the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and joined the All Progressives Congress, APC.

The planked her decision on the premise that the PDP has lost focus. The senator who represented Abia Central senatorial zone in the 7th assembly, said she had to leave because the party has derailed.

In a defection ceremony, held at the campaign office of the governorship candidate of the APC in the 2015 election, Nyerere Anyim, in Umuahia that brought together some of the party’s chieftains and supporters, Senator Nwaogu said that she waited this long to see if the party could show any remorse.

“I had to leave because the party has derailed, because they have been in power since 1999 so they think it will continue like that, they failed to recognise that democracy has evolved and developed over the years and when a democratic party fails to be fair and just then it has derailed,” she stressed.
