POLITICS – Latest gist as the former All Progressives Congress, APC, governorship aspirant in Benue State, Mrs Helen Ode, and two former aides of the state governor and their supporters defected to Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Okpokwu Local Government Area of the state.
However, state chairman of APC, Mr. Abba Yaro, in a swift reaction, described the defectors as a group of irrelevant people, whose action will not negatively impact the success of his party in 2019.
