Over 1000 members of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, from the Central Senatorial District of Kogi State led by Senator Muhammed Salami Ohiare, weekend, dumped the ruling party for the All Progressives Congress, APC. Speaking at a press conference shortly after the mass exodus with thousands of his supporters, Ohiare said that they had waited for better life to be ushered into the state to no avail, hence they needed to move ahead. “We have waited too long for better life to be ushered into this country in general and Kogi State in particular, but like an ‘abracadabra’, the more we expect it, the further it is made to elude us” he stressed. While stating that Kogi State was far behind in terms of infrastructural development, he said, “It is most disheartening that a party, All Nigeria Peoples Party,ANPP, that ruled this state for four years can still point to greater achievements than the one that has been in power all these years”
