After 3 Months In APGA, Senator Stella Oduah Returns To PDP

Barely three months after dumping the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), senator representing Anambra north, Stella Oduah has returned to the opposition party.

Recall that the senator had defected to the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) in June, describing the move as “the beginning of a new political chapter”.

But Oduah, on Friday, announced that she dumped APGA after realizing that the party didn’t have sound ideological leanings native to Igboland and the internal democracy, which will guarantee justice, fairness and equity was not in practice

The statement released by her media office on Friday, Oduah read: “Politics has always been about ideology and delivering service to the people for me, because I believe leadership is all about solving problems.

“Political platforms must afford members unfettered opportunity to participate in the electoral process and to solve the problems of their community, constituency and state.

“I joined APGA because I thought it had sound ideological leanings native to Igboland. But my ideological expectations were a mirage. I discovered that internal democracy, which will guarantee justice, fairness and equity, was also not in practice in the party.

“After due consultations and with respect to my religious beliefs, I announce that PDP remains the vehicle through which I will keep fulfilling my mandate to the people of Anambra North.”
