Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has described the recent defection of 16 lawmakers from the Rivers State House of Assembly from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, as unfortunate, saying the move reflects the factional divisions within the party.
Recall that 16 lawmakers, including the Speaker, Martins Amaewhule, had during plenary on Friday, announced their defection from the PDP to the ruling APC.
