The entire chapter and ward exco of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Obot Akara Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State have defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The tweet from APC reads:

“The entire Chapter & Ward Exco of the PDP in Obot Akara LGA in Akwa Ibom State have decamped to the APC alongside thousands of their members. They were received into the APC by the DG of Nsima Ekere 2019 Governorship Campaign, Abom Tony Esu, on October 17, 2018.”
