APC EX-BOT MEMBER SAM NKIRE JOINS PDP

The Deputy National Chairman (South) of the Reformed All Progressives Congress (rAPC ), Chief Sam Nkire, has joined the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The former member of APC Board of Trustees (BoT) made the announcement in a statement in Umuahia on Thursday.

Chief Nkire explained that he decided to join forces with the PDP both at the state and federal levels ahead of the 2019 general election because he was convinced that Nigerians wanted the party back to serve them better.

He noted that he had no regrets leaving the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the rAPC, and now PDP, adding that it was regrettable to note that the APC had left the country worse than it met it.

Nkire asked all his loyalists, followers and associates who had been asking him for political direction, especially in Abia State, to defect with him, saying, “PDP is now a new, reformed and restructured party ready to serve Nigerians better”.

According to the former national chairman of the Progressive People’s Alliance (PPA), the Peoples Democratic Party is the only hope Nigeria has to solve the numerous security, economic and political problems bedevilling the country today.

Nkire, who was until recently the Caucus Leader of the APC in Abia State, admitted that he would miss his brothers, associates and friends who may choose to remain, adding that “brothers will always be brothers no matter what party they belonged.”

He said he was sure that PDP had learnt from its past mistakes and appealed to every Nigerian of voting age who is yet to get a voter’s card to endeavour to get one, “to ensure that we are governed by those we can trust.”
