DAILY POST reports that just two days ago, a Rep member from the Labour Party, Daniel Chollom, defected to the APC.
Chollom, in a letter read during plenary by Speaker Tajudeen, cited the Labour Party’s leadership crisis and his desire to support the President in national development as reasons for his decision.
Similarly, about a week ago, four members of the House of Representatives from the LP defected to the APC.
