The Governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara has revealed why he dumped the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP for the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC. News men reported that the governor had earlier in the week, announced his defection from the main opposition party to APC.
Speaking at the government house in Port Harcourt today while receiving the APC membership card from the party’s chairman, Chief Tony Okocha, the governor said his decision was to align with President Bola Tinubu’s re-election bid. The governor described the move as spiritual assignment, stressing that joining the APC gives the state opportunity to have a good working relationship with the president.
Governor Fubara expressed gratitude to the party leadership for the warm reception, noting that his decision to align with the APC was made in the interest of the state’s stability and development, further pledging to strengthen the APC in the state, assuring that the party structure, members, and executives would receive his total support.
