SENATOR ANDY UBA DEFECTS TO APC TO 'SERVES THE YEARNINGS OF HIS PEOPLE'

Andy Uba, senator representing Anambra South senatorial zone under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The lawmaker who disclosed this at a news briefing on February 1st, in his home country, Uga, Aguata Local Government Area of the state, said he joined the APC at the ongoing registration of party members in the state.

According to him, APC has ideology and focus which he needed to tap into to provide quality representation of his constituents. Another reason he joined the APC is because of Senator Chris Ngige, Minister of Labour and Employment, APC National Auditor, Chief George Muoghalu and other personalities in the party with sound ideas and whom he looked up to in politics.

The senator said he would be very effective in serving the yearnings of his people more now that he was in APC and urged other Igbo politicians to follow his footsteps.
