The National Working Committee (NWC) of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has presented the party membership card to Enugu State Governor Peter Mbah.
Governor Mbah received the APC membership card from the party’s national working committee a few hours after he defected to the party.
In a broadcast, the governor said, “Today, after a long reflection, we have decided to leave the Peoples Democratic Party and join the All Progressives Congress.”
Governor Mbah further noted that
“Today, I stand before you to announce a break from the past and to share a decision that will shape the road ahead.
“This concerns our values, how we organise ourselves politically and how we secure the future of our project and our people.
“Leadership sometimes demands painful decisions in the service of higher principles and goals. And there comes a time when everyone must make a bold choice to determine their destiny,” the governor noted.
Governor Mbah was welcomed to the APC by governors and National Assembly members of the party.
