Member of the house of representatives, Godday Samuel Odagboyi has dumped the Labour Party (LP) and joined the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The defection of Odagboyi was announced on the floor of the green chamber on Tuesday by the speaker of the house, Femi Gbajabiamila
Odagboyi, who represents Apa/Agatu federal constituency of Benue state, said he defected to the APC because of the “lingering crisis” in the LP.
“I have fully registered and commenced party activities. My exit has become necessary because of the lingering crisis on my former party. And your untiring leadership qualities displayed since the commencement of this assembly,” his letter reads.
Recall that there have been defections in the lower legislative chamber in recent weeks.
