Members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) across the 5 Local Government Areas of Cross River North have tendered their resignation letters to the PDP in preparation to join the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
The defectors, largely drawn from the Local Government Chapters and Ward levels of the PDP, said they were leaving the PDP due to dissatisfaction with the party and to support Distinguished Senator Jarigbe Agom Jarigbe’s re-election bid ahead of the 2027 Senatorial election.
Addressing party supporters in their respective LGAs, the Stakeholders, stated that there is every need to support the leadership of Senator Jarigbe Agom, urging them to immediately return to their various wards and polling units to begin grassroots mobilisation for the lawmaker and the APC.
The increasing influx of members to the All Progressive Congress in the Senatorial District is due to the Senator’s performance in office.
