BREAKING: 15 Lawmakers Dump PDP in Adamawa, APC Takes Majority in Assembly

The political landscape in Adamawa State shifted dramatically on Wednesday as 15 members of the State House of Assembly resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The defections, which include the Speaker of the House, have handed the majority position in the Assembly to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The lawmakers formally announced their resignation in a letter read during a preliminary sitting of the House.

In the letter, they attributed their decision to the lingering internal crisis within the PDP, stating that the situation had made it difficult for them to continue their membership in the party.

Some of the defecting legislators confirmed that further consultations are ongoing to determine their next political steps, as political realignments continue to unfold in the state.
