In Ebonyi State, NDC deputy chairman Okechukwu Idenyi, party secretary Solomon Adum, and several members have defected to the Peoples Democratic Party ahead of the 2027 elections.

PDP chairman Chukwuma Igwe received them at a rally in Isu, Onicha LGA, calling the defections a major boost to the party’s influence. He assured the newcomers of equal opportunities and urged them to work with existing members to advance the PDP’s objectives. Solomon Adum explained that the decision followed extensive consultations with their supporters and reflected confidence in the PDP’s vision for unity and sustainable development. The defectors pledged to expand grassroots support, promote peace, internal democracy, and issue-based politics.
