Nyesom Wike: more desertions

Nyesom Wike: more desertions

Less than 24 hours after Marvin Yobana,an Aide to Mrs Patience Jonathan,wife of former President Goodluck Jonathan,dumped the  Peoples Democratic Party,PDP,  a former  Caretaker Committee Chairman of Khana Local Government Area in Rivers State Sunny Bekanwa has also followed suit.
The dumping of PDP by Yobana,the African representative in the World Assembly of Youths and an influential youth mobiliser in Ogoniland and in the South-South is causing an expected panic and mass defection to APC.

The embarrassed  leadership of PDP in the state has called  on Governor Wike to restructure PDP in Khana local Government area  to stem mass defection of PDP members  to APC. Khanaa is  the largest local government area in Ogoniland.

Sunny Bekanwa, was one of  the 22 Caretaker committee Chairmen appointed by Governor Nyesom Wike in June 2015 immediately after Retired Justice Lambo Akanbi nullified   the 23  May 2015 Local Government Election conducted by Former Governor Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi.

Sunny was received today in Bori by the Leadership of the All Progressives Congress,APC.
