A former member of the All progressives congress(APC) Presidential Campaign Team for the 2023 elections, Obinna Simon, has defected to the Social Democratic Party (SDP).
Obinna made the announcement this Friday, saying he chose to leave the APC due to the party’s lack of a proper reward system for loyal members and its failure to uphold its founding ideals.
He says the party’s leadership structure is dominated by a few power brokers who disregard the voices and aspirations of the majority.
He however commended the SDP for its commitment to youth inclusion and internal democracy, saying it was the reason he chose the party.
