Governor Peter Mbah of Enugu State has officially defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The announcement was made on Tuesday during a press conference in Enugu, where the governor said the decision followed “deep reflection” and was guided by his commitment to better serve the people of the state.
Mbah explained that joining the APC would allow him to align more closely with the ruling party’s vision for development and progress, noting that it presented “greater opportunities for collaboration and growth.”
He expressed appreciation to the PDP for the platform that brought him to power, describing the party as an important part of his political journey.
“To the Peoples Democratic Party which provided us the platform on which we campaigned and won, I extend deep gratitude. The PDP supported us through a demanding campaign and joined us in celebrating the victory.
“Leadership demands difficult, even painful decisions, in the service of higher principles and goals. And there comes always a time where everyone must make a bold choice to determine their destiny. Today, after a long reflection, we have made a decision to join the All Progressives Congress,” he said.
Mbah assured residents of Enugu that his defection would not derail his administration’s focus on service delivery and infrastructural development, stressing that it was a strategic move aimed at accelerating the state’s growth.
The defection comes a day after members of his cabinet reportedly joined the APC, setting the stage for his formal declaration.
