Onyekachi Nwebonyi, chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Ebonyi State and the State Executive Committee of the party, have defected to the All Progressives Congress, (APC) in the state.
Also, chairmen of the 13 local government area chapters, including the chairmen of 171 wards of the party, defected to the party.
The defection took place at the Pa Oruta Township Stadium, Abakaliki.
It would be recalled that Nwebonyi was sacked by the national executive of the PDP late last year following the defection of the state governor to APC, the decision he has challenged in the court.
