In a significant political development, Dr. Ikechukwu Nwabeke, the former Chief Whip of the Abia State House of Assembly, has officially joined the All Progressives Congress (APC). The announcement was made earlier today at his Ama Asaa, Ward 5.

Dr. Nwabeke’s defection to the APC marks a notable shift in the political landscape of Abia State. Known for his influential role in the House of Assembly, his move is expected to strengthen the APC’s position in the region.

The former transition committee chairman Osisioma Ngwa LGA was joined by Joined Chief Grant Mgbeonyere Anyaumunna, a former Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to the Governor. Anyaumunna’s decision to align with the APC adds further weight to the party’s growing influence in Abia State.

Dr Nwabekee was received by the Executives of the All Progressive Congress, APC Amasaa  ward 5, led by Hon. Chidi kanu.

The defections of these prominent figures are seen as a strategic boost for the APC as it seeks to consolidate power and expand its reach within the state.

Political analysts are closely watching these developments, anticipating potential impacts on upcoming elections and the broader political dynamics in Abia State. The entry of influential personalities into the APC is expected to attract more supporters and possibly sway public opinion in favor of the party.

As the APC continues to welcome new members, the party’s leadership has expressed optimism about its prospects in future electoral contests. Dr. Nwabeke and Chief Anyaumunna’s defection signals a period of significant realignment and renewed vigor within the state’s political arena.
