A Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain in Cross River, Mr Asuquo Ada, has defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Ada’s defection followed several other defections that have hit the opposition party in the state in recent times.
Ada told NAN in Calabar on Friday that he had decided to move on with his political career in APC which rules at the state and Federal levels.
Ada, a campaign Director-General to one of the PDP governorship aspirants in the 2023 general elections, had earlier announced his resignation from the PDP through a letter.
The letter, dated October 23, was addressed to the Enong Ward leadership of the party.
“I find conviction finally to resolve in favour of my embattled decision to resign membership of the Peoples Democratic Party as situations have so demand’’, Ada said.
