Former Senate leader, Victor Ndoma-Egba, who resigned from PDP on
September 17th, has formally joined the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Ndoma-Egba, who represented Cross River Central in the seventh Senate,
was at the APC secretariat in Cross River state today where he formally
joined the party. While speaking to some of the party chieftains,
Ndoma-Egba said
“I came to reciprocate the various courtesy calls paid to me by chapter chairmen of the APC from the ward level to the national body of the party and to tell you that I want to formally join the APC family.
For a long time, it was said that Cross River State was a one party state. For a long time it was, but it is no longer tenable today, because the action of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) created a large pool of IDPs (Internally Displaced Politicians) who still have political life in them and must continue in politics. So the IDPs must find a platform to carry on with their politics. As we continue consultations with you, I want to assure you that we are aware the party has a constitution and we must be bound by it. We want to come to the party with values of integrity, fair competition and a level playing ground. Fortunately PDP has given a template of what should not be done, that impunity is not sustainable. They have had to pay a high price for impunity. Whether they have learnt lessons from their impunity is what I don't know," he said.
