Anambra governor, Willie Obiano has suffered a political setback.
Over five hundred aggrieved members of his party- All Progressives Grand Alliance, and Nigeria’s main opposition, Peoples Democratic Party, have cross-carpeted to Equity Forum, a political pressure group.
Equity Forum was formed by a former PDP Chairman and member, House of Representatives Prince Tony Nwoye.
The mass defection must be a bitter pill for the governor to swallow as those who defected from Anambra East Council Area- are his kinsmen.
Speaking on Monday at Umueri Recreation Club and Events Center, EF Chairman for Anambra East, Thompson Chikezie, said the group was formed and inaugurated in Anambra State in August 2015.
Chikezie said the defectors haven’t yet decided on the political party they will join to wrestle power from Obiano.
