The senator representing Imo East Senatorial District, Ezenwa Onyewuchi, has dumped the Labour Party (LP) and joined the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Onyewuchi also declared his support for President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
His letter of defection was read on the floor of the red chambers by Senate President Godswill Akpabio, on Tuesday, July 23.
Recall in 2022, Senator Onyewuchi left the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to join the Labour Party (LP).
Onyewuchi was also a former member of the House of Representatives – Owerri-Municipal/Owerri-North/West-Federal Constituency
The letter partly reads: “This decision is due to the intractable division and crisis in the labour party that sponsored my election into the senate.
“We give our unflinching support to Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and of course, support his administration aimed at achieving sustainable development for our country.”
