Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, representing Anambra South, under the Young Progressive Party, has switched his allegiance to the ruling All Progressives Congress.
The announcement of his defection was conveyed in a letter directed to the President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, and publicly read in the Senate Chamber on Thursday.
Ubah, who had been elected for a second term under the YPP in the previous elections, according to the letter, said his reason for switching parties was due to the insurmountable disagreements within the party.
Ubah, however, did not explain the irreconcilable differences.
The letter further explained that Ubah’s decision is in the interest of his constituents.
Ubah was the sole member of the YPP in the 10th Senate before his defection to the APC.
