Over 1,000 members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), yesterday defected to the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in Anambra. The members took the action at the swearing-in of the newly elected members of APGA State executive committee in Awka.

One of the defectors, Uchenna Umerie, a former lawmaker in the state, said he decided to dump his party for APGA because the administration of Governor Willie Obiano was doing well.

He said that he could no longer cope with the protracted crisis in state chapter of his former party, PDP.
