No fewer than nine senators from various political parties on Thursday formally defected to the African Democratic Congress (ADC), a development that has further altered the political balance within the Senate
Among the lawmakers who announced their move to the party are Aminu Tambuwal (Sokoto South), Enyinnaya Abaribe (Abia South), Binos Yaroe (Adamawa South), Victor Umeh (Anambra Central), Tony Nwoye (Anambra North), Lawal Usman (Kaduna Central), Ogoshi Onawo (Nasarawa South), Austin Akobundu (Abia Central), and Ireti Kingibe (Federal Capital Territory).
Their defection letters were read during Thursday’s plenary session by Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
In his letter, Nwoye attributed his decision to internal crises within the Labour Party.
