The Deputy Senate President, Sen. Ike Ekweremadu Saturday described the recent defection of federal lawmakers and Benue State Governor, Mr. Samuel Ortom to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as a genuine movement to rescue Nigeria.
Ekweremadu berated those personalising the mass defection across the federation from the All Progressives Congress (APC), insisting that it was no longer about anybody’s individual political ambition.
He expressed the view during in Enugu yesterday, noting that what had happened so far was “a tip of the iceberg” as so many other top political office-holders would soon dump the ruling party.
He, therefore, described the PDP as the fastest growing political in Africa, noting that spirits “have been high within the PDP family and Coalition of United Political Parties (CUPP), mainly after the joining and rejoining of the PDP and the coalition by scores of federal and state lawmakers.
“We are happy for this. But I have good news for you. Nigerians have only witnessed a tip of the iceberg. More people are on their way because it is no longer about anybody’s individual political ambition
