Anyim’s defection to APC is a huge blessing -Ganduje

Dr Abdullahi Ganduje, All Progressives Congress (APC) National Chairman says the defection of Chief Pius Anyim, a former President of the Senate to the APC, is a huge blessing to it.

He said this in a statement issued by Mr Edwin Olofu, his Chief Press Secretary on Sunday in Abuja, adding that Anyim’s wealth of experience would be beneficial to the APC.

Ganduje had earlier received Anyim who defected from the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) into the APC in an elaborate event in Abakaliki, Ebonyi capital alongside others.

“I’m elated to receive such an important personality to our party.

“I want to assure you on behalf of President Bola Tinubu that you are welcome to the largest political party in black and white Africa.

“Be rest assured that we will give you equal opportunity like old members of our party so that you can come to the table with your huge experience and followership,” Ganduje assured.

The APC national chairman said  the South East geo-political region could not continue to be in the opposition and urged the region to join the mainstream politics.

The statement quoted Anyim who was the President of the Senate during President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration as saying that the PDP in Ebonyi had resolved to collapse its structures into the APC.(https://newsatlarge ng)
