The Cross River State Governor's Senior Special Adviser on Legislative Matters and a former Speaker in the House of Assembly and Representative of Ogoja/Yala Federal Constituency in the National Assembly, Rt Hon Gabriel Edi,recently defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC) NegroidHaven can say.
According to an 18th report by NigeriaSparrow, Edi who declared for the APC during the APC Ogoja chapter celebration of the Bakor New Yam Festival in the Ishibori playground cited poor and visionless leadership as provided by Gov. Ben Ayade as the reason why he dumped the 'umbrella' he has held for 16 years for the 'broom', which he accepts is a veritable instrument that will sweep Ayade and his poor leadership out of power in 2019.
Edi promised to ensure that APC gets victory in 2019. He appreciated Ayade's former Special Adviser on Strategy and National Contact, Chief Ray Ugba Morphy and Mr. Wabilly Nyiam for the encouragement they gave to him to take the political decision.
Present at the occasion to receive him was the APC State Chairman Mr John Ochalla, others included BoT member Mr Wabilly Nyiam, Vice Chairman South, Hon. Victor Okon, State Deputy Youth Leader Mr Kalita Aruku, Chapter Chairman Mr Joseph Ukpo, Chairmanship candidate for Ogoja Mr Leonard Afanga, Mr Eric Kanjal, Mr Mark Atabi, Chief Omo Bright Ntaji and other dignitaries.
