The member representing Oredo Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Mr. Esosa Iyawe has defected from the Labour Party (LP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

He disclosed his move today via a statement that was circulated in social media.

The statement reads: “I am writing to formally tender my resignation as a member of Labour Party (LP), effective immediately. This decision was reached after careful consideration of my personal convictions and the alignment of my values with the political landscape today.” 

The lawmaker declared that his decision to dump the LP is as a result of the party’s failure to define the caretaker committee across board.

“My decision to resign from LP is as a result of the party’s inability to declare who should emerge as the legitimate Caretaker Committee from the National to State levels.

“More so, due the incessant tussle rocking the leadership of the party and the numerous perpetual Court cases against the Leadership of the party; myself and my supporters are in a state of confusion as to the Party’s stability in leadership.

“With regards to my right to freedom of association as enshrined in the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (As Amended); I hereby wish to notify you of my defection from the Labour Party (LP) to the All Progressive Congress (APC) whose ideas align with my political aspirations and ideology. This is after due consultations with my family and supporters.

“I hereby re-emphasis my resolve to continue my service and representation to my people as this decision will certainly improve my past performance at all levels.”

While rthanking the leadership of the LP, he said: “I thank the leadership and fellow members of Labour Party (LP) for the support, collaboration, and opportunities provided to me during my membership.

“I leave with gratitude and respect for the party’s efforts and contributions to our democracy.” Iyawe stated.
