Abia South Senator, Enyinnaya Abaribe, has dumped the African Democratic Congress, ADC, and joined the Labour Party, LP.

The Publicity Secretary of the Labour Party in Abia State, Emenike Iroegbu, who disclosed this development, said the lawmaker had officially aligned with the party.

Abaribe’s latest movement adds another chapter to a political career marked by strategic realignments and changing party platforms.

Recall that he had joined the ADC in December last year after leaving the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, where he won reelection in the 2023 polls.

The lawmaker’s stay in the ADC only lasted a few months before the latest move.

Senator Abaribe is currently serving his fifth term representing Abia South Senatorial District.

At the time of filing this report, the senator had yet to issue a personal statement confirming or denying the latest defection.
