Fabian Ihekweme, the immediate past commissioner for foreign affairs, has decamped to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodinma, is a member of the APC, and the only southeast Governor that belongs to that party.
Ihekweme’s defection took place at the Kanu Nwankwo stadium in Owerri, during the reception organised by the PDP, to welcome home the National Secretary of the party, Senator Samdaddy Anyanwu, along with the National leadership led by the National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu.
Several other supporters of these Imo political heavyweights also ditched the APC for the PDP.
Earlier, PDP praised Anyanwu, saying he is the best among others in being resolute and sincere on matters concerning the party, maintenance of party structures, membership mobilization, philanthropy, care given, humility and show of love across the state.
That was an approval given by Imo PDP and lovers of Samdaddy across the state at a recent technical forum held in Owerri.
