Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, has announced his defection from All Progressives Congress (APC) to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The governor made the announcement at a meeting with elected local government chairmen and councillors on Wednesday at the Government House Makurdi, hours after protesting youths barred him from traveling to Abuja to attend the APC reconciliation meeting.

The announcement brings to an end months of speculation that the governor will return to the PDP as a result of his disagreement with leaders of the party in Benue and at the national level.

His defection follows major politicaldecisions in the state over the last three weeks.

The governor recently sacked over 80 percent of his cabinet members and, on Tuesday the Benue House of Assembly impeached Mr. Terkimbi Ikyange, as its Speaker.

All these political analysts. How does this brighten Buhari's chances in Benue? Did you read where it was said the youths stopped him from going to APC meeting?
Are these people not the ones that will vote? unless you're expecting ghost voters from Benue state.
