Four Rivers State Lawmakers Defect From PDP To APC

Four members of the House of Representatives representing constituencies in Rivers State have officially defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

This move by the lawmakers occurs just one week after Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara switched to the ruling party, significantly altering the political dynamics in the state.

The defectors include Manuchim Umezuruike, representing Port Harcourt I Federal Constituency; Boniface Emerengwa, from Ikwerre/Emuoha Federal Constituency; Awaji-Inombek Abiante, who holds the Andoni/Opobo Federal Constituency seat; and Boma Goodhead, the representative for Asari-Toru Federal Constituency.

This latest development highlights an ongoing political realignment among key figures in Rivers State in the wake of recent high-level changes.
