Member representing Otukpo/Ohimini Federal Constituency of Benue, Hon. Blessing Onuh, has joined the All Progressives Congress (APC) from the All Progressive Grand Alliance(APGA).
Onuh is the Daughter of former Senate President David Mark.
According to her, she left APGA due to leadership crisis at all levels of the party, adding that her decision followed consultation with stakeholders.
Onuh, who formally joined the APC at a well- attended event in her constituency in December 2020, commended national leadership of the ruling party for making the defection possible.
Also, the member representing Bauchi Federal Constituency, Hon. Yakubu Abdullahi switched tents from the People’s Redemption Party (PRP) to the APC.
Abdullahi said he decided to leave the PRP as a result of the crisis, which led to emergence of two national chairmen for the party as well as two chairmen in Bauchi state.
This development was contained in two separate letters read by Speaker Femi Gbajabiamila, during the plenary session.
