The lawmaker representing Rivers West Senatorial District, Sen. Osinakachukwu Ideozu, has dumped the Peoples Democratic Party to join the APC.

His decision was announced by the Senate Majority Leader, Senator Ahmad Lawan, at the close of plenary on Wednesday.

Lawan said, “Let me congratulate very distinguished Senator Osinakachukwu Ideozu representing Rivers-West for moving from the PDP to the APC. Congratulations, my brother.”

Also on Wednesday, the lawmaker representing Kaduna Central Senatorial District, Senator Shehu Sani, informed the Senate about his defection from the APC to the People’s Redemption Party.

Sani had risen to speak on the motion moved by Senator Suleiman Hunkuyi (PDP, Kaduna-North) on the current communal clash in Kaduna.

The lawmaker, who recently resigned his membership of the APC, introduced himself as a senator on the platform of the People’s Redemption Party.

Making the introduction dramatic, President of the Senate, Bukola Saraki, asked Sani to restart his introduction, which generated laughter in the chamber. Sani, again, stated that he was representing the PRP.
