Less than 48 hours after dumping the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, the former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Ghali Na’Abba, has joined the opposition All Progressives Congress, APC.

Na’abba, who condemned the PDP as having “lost it soul” in a letter in which he notified the party’s  leadership of his exit , was received by the National Working Committee, NWC, and other top members of the APC at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja.

Speaking on his decision to join the APC, Na’Abba said it was hinged on the fact that the PDP was reluctant to change its undemocratic ways of doing things.

He recalled that he once exited the party in 2005 and had returned only after late President Musa Yar’adua assumed office in 2007 promising change.

Na’Abba however said the promise was not fulfilled.

“I believe the country needs change, particularly at the top,” he said.

Noting that Nigeria had suffered serious misrule in the 16 years of PDP administration, the former lawmaker stated that “the momentum everywhere now is with the APC and that is why I decided to join the APC in order to help grow the momentum”.
