A member of the Peoples Democratic Party has left his party members dazed after he defected to the All Progressives Congress in the House of Representatives this morning.
The member identified as Mr. Johnson Agbonayinma from Edo State. Agbonayinma, belonged to the Ali Modu Sheriff faction before the Supreme Court recognised the then Senator Ahmed Makarfi faction as the authentic leadership of the party, according to Punch.
It would be recalled that a member of the PDP from Imo State, Mr. Raphael Igbokwe, had defected to the APC on Tuesday.
Agbonayinma claimed, “The PDP has shut the door against me.”
Edo State Deputy Governor, Mr. Phillip Shuaibu, witnessed the defection. Shuaibu was a member of the House.
