House of Representatives member Joshua Chinedu Obika has resigned from the All Progressives Congress, APC, and defected to the Nigerian Democratic Congress, NDC.

 

 

This is coming barely two months after the lawmaker joined the ruling party from the Labour Party, LP.

 

Obika, who represents AMAC/Bwari Federal Constituency in the FCT, was denied a return ticket by the APC despite defecting to the ruling party on 11 March 2026.

 

 

He is now set to receive an automatic ticket from the NDC to contest for a second term in the House of Representatives.

 

UGAMATV reports that several lawmakers have been defecting to the NDC since Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso joined the party on Sunday.
