‘I think ADC is dead’ – Akpabio reacts to defections

Senate President Godswill Akpabio has said that he thinks the African Democratic Congress, ADC, is dead.

Akpabio made the comment during plenary on Tuesday when he read a letter announcing the defection of Abia South senator, Enyinnaya Abaribe.

DAILY POST had earlier reported that Abaribe defected from the African Democratic Congress, ADC, to the Labour Party.

It will be recalled that two former presidential candidates, Peter Obi and Rabi’u Kwankwaso, on Sunday dumped the ADC for the Nigerian Democratic Congress, NDC.

Reacting to the defection, Akpabio said, “I think ADC is dead.

“How many times are you defecting? A month? Three times? But let us compile all the list so it doesn’t look like a daily ritual.

“Compile the names of those defecting from all the political parties and their party destinations. If you are moving from ADC, you write all of you. If you are entering NDC, you write all of you. If you are going to Accord, you write as well.”
