Onyeabor was a member Board of Trustee, BOT, of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP until his defection and at one time acting National Secretary of the party.
During his defecting, in his home country in Ugbawka, Nkanu East local government area of Enugu state, Onyeabor said he was crossing to the APC because the PDP was not likely to survive it’s present leadership crisis.
He said, “Apart from being former national secretary, I was BOT member which is the highest advisory body in PDP and I attended a lot of meetings, virtually every meeting, reconciliation meeting.
“There are some people who are still there attending meeting to reconcile; you see what they are doing now, Modu Sheriff and Ahmed Makarfi, and recently Jonathan and Seriake (Dickson); it is not likely that an agreement will be reached very soon.
“So I looked at all the efforts we have made in the past trying to restructure the party, trying to bring the party out of the melancholy or depression of defeat, it has not worked; that’s why I decided to pick my bag and take a walk.”
Onyeabor added that APC provides the best platform for changing Nigeria for now, noting that though APC might not be the best party in the world but that it was better than other parties in Nigeria today. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
