Omo, e be like say Rivers State dey face serious political wahala! Two senators wey represent you and me, don defect from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) join the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). Their move no be small matter o, as dem talk say na internal crisis wey dey happen for PDP make dem run come join APC wey dey flex with federal government.

One of the senators, Alwell Onyesoh wey dey represent Rivers East said, ‘I consult plenty people before I make this move. I gree sey na my constituents dey my mind and na dem I wan serve, no be PDP. Political parties na just channel wey we dey take pursue better governance.’

The senator talk am true no be lie. He no wan make party wahala stop him from delivering the goods wey him pipo need, especially in terms of human capital development. He still dey sway on loyalty to hin people, no bi party matters for am.

The second senator, Barinada Mpigi, wey dey represent Rivers South-East, follow suit too. Him don talk say Niger constitution dey allow am to japa from PDP to APC because of the serious internal divisions wey dey scatter PDP like jara. E talk say, ‘Na pure wahala you go see for PDP and na why I gatz come out.’ He still praise PDP for their role during him tenure but talk say dem no fit resolve their internal issues.

As APC dey gather more members, dem dey make sense for inside the Senate, while PDP dey struggle to hold ground. You fit see say, enabling APC dey shine like diamond as dem dey prepare for 2027 elections. Na serious political shift be this o, as different big chops dey waka cross to APC, including governors wey don jump ship too.

Wetin dey happen wey make these defections sweet? You fit talk say na the euphoria to align with the central government come dey sweet for dem as dem wan tap into the goodies wey dey come from Abuja. Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State don also leave PDP join APC, and e talk say na to better support President Bola Tinubu and to find peace wey dem dey lack for political matter.

Since Fubara join APC, e don gather plenty of people wey wan bring change for Rivers, including some members wey dey fall like pack of cards from Labour Party and PDP. This matter get as e be, because as dem dey decamp every minute, APC dey rise like phoenix from ash.

Meanwhile, FCT senator Ireti Kingibe don also jump ship join African Democratic Congress (ADC) after strong wahala for Labour Party wey she dey before. Na so political landscape dey shake everywhere, as voters dey look for the best options for elections wey dey come soon.

Na so the political realignment dey happen for Rivers and other states. With four lawmakers also don groove into APC, e dey clear say na to consolidate power be the key matter. No forget say dem dey call on Rivers people make dem show face and vote for APC candidates come 2027, as Ajibola Basiru, APC national secretary don drop that one for ground.

This political wahala wey dey happen fit open door for new governance style and we go dey watch am closely. APC dey waka strong, PDP dey struggle, and all eyes dey on 2027 to see how this drama go play out for Niger political stage.
