Governor, David Umahi
The Ebonyi State Governor, Dave Umahi, has said the
administration of the All Progressives Congress (APC) is far better
than the 16 years of the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP).
Umahi who spoke in Abuja made this known on Friday during an
interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today.
“When you compare, I can see that the partial administration of
the APC is far better than that of my former party. No one person
in APC is dictating the affairs of the party,” the governor
said.
According to the governor, his decision to dump the PDP for the
ruling party wasn’t done out of protests.
To Umahi, Ebonyi State has benefitted from the five-year
administration of the ruling party unlike the 16 years PDP held
sway at the nation’s helm of affairs.
“We have choices in life to make. I have made the choice of APC
because of the way they run their affairs and respect for Mr
President and equity to all the governors who have benefitted.

“I continue to say that the 15 years of PDP and the five to six
years of APC central government have a lot to show in my state. I
am not choosing APC out of protest,” he said.

Nnamani; Chairman, APC National Caretaker Committee who is also the
governor of Yobe State, Mai Mala Buni; Jigawa State Governor,
Muhammadu Badaru Abubakar; Kebbi State Governor Abubakar Bagudu and
Niger State Governor, Abubakar Bello, among others.
Governor Umahi in his speech at the official defection announced
that “henceforth, Ebonyi is 100% APC. We are all moving to
APC.”
He, however, called for unity between both APC and PDP, noting
that, “Together, we are stronger.”
