“PDP has shut me out, I’m heading to APC” – Ndoma-Egba

The immediate past Senate Leader, Senator Victor Ndoma-Egba, has disclosed that he is defecting to the All Progressive Congress from the Peoples Democratic Party.

Ndoma-Egba said the reason for his planned defection is due to the fact that the PDP has been hostile to him for some time, and has shut him out of the party.
“For three years, I have not been invited to any meeting of the PDP in Cross River State and this is understandable. The party shut its doors against me a long time ago. I still have political life and I have no plans to retire from politics. And to play politics, I need a platform and PDP has become hostile and inhospitable, so I move on.”
Ndoma Egba, who disclosed this during an interview, said that the PDP mismanaged its fortunes and relationships.
“The governors appropriated the party in the states and the state chapters became their personal property and only their wishes prevailed. The party lost any claims to internal democracy. Impunity and arrogance reigned in the party.
“Even with the loss of power at the centre, the PDP is yet to wean itself from arrogance and impunity, it is yet to realise that things have changed fundamentally and that they must adapt to the new times.
The APC six chapter chairmen in Cross River Central had been here to invite me to join the party. The zonal vice-chairman (central) has formally invited me to join; the elders of the party have also invited me to the party. I am consulting widely, both at the national, state, zonal, chapter and ward levels of the party and I am being welcomed.”
