Senator Andy Uba Formally Decamps from PDP to APC

 

Senate President Bukola Saraki announced the defection of Senator Andy Uba from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressive Congress (APC) during Tuesday's plenary.

Uba said he joined the ruling party during registration of party members in the state. According to him, APC has ideology and focus which he needed to tap into to provide quality representation of his constituents. Another reason he joined the APC is because of Senator Chris Ngige, Minister of Labour and Employment, APC National Auditor, Chief George Muoghalu and other personalities in the party with sound ideas and whom he looked up to in politics.
The senator said he would be very effective in serving the yearnings of his people more now that he was in APC and urged other Igbo politicians to follow his footstep.
