“Enugu remains fully committed to playing its part in building a stronger, united, and more prosperous Nigeria,” Mbah wrote.
DAILY POST recalls that Mbah officially dumped the PDP for the APC on October 14 during a recent press conference held in Enugu, the state capital.
According to the governor, his decision to join the ruling party was driven by his commitment to advancing Enugu’s interests and aligning the state’s development agenda with the Federal Government’s policies.
He described his defection as “a strategic move for visionary partnership that would bring transformative change” to both Enugu State and the nation.
Mbah, who was accompanied by his predecessor, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, as well as state and federal lawmakers, said the decision was not taken lightly, noting that it was necessary to better serve the people of Enugu and ensure inclusive development under the APC-led Federal Government.
