The member representing Aba North/Aba South Federal constituency in the House of Representatives, Mascot Ikwechegh has officially defected to the Labour Party, four days after he resigned from the All Progressive Grand Alliance, APGA
Ikwechegh, who resigned from APGA last week with several APGA executives in Aba, confirmed to journalists on Tuesday that he is now a member of the LP.
Shortly after declaring for the Labour Party, the lawmaker met with the Abia State Governor, Alex Otti.
While the details of the closed-door meeting he held with the Governor were not immediately disclosed, political analysts believe the development has strengthened the Labour Party’s structure in Aba and across Abia State.
Recall that the Chairman of APGA in Abia State, Sunday Onukwubiri had told DAILY POST weekend that the APGA office in Umuahia was not communicated about Ikwechegh’s resignation.
He further said that his party would remain united, peaceful and stronger despite the exit of any individual.
