Hundreds dump APC, NNPP, LP for PDP in Benue South

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Benue South Senatorial District received a major boost on Saturday, October 11, 2025, as prominent politicians from various parties, including the NNPP, APC, ADC, and LP, defected to the PDP in Ogoli-Ugboju, Otukpo Local Government Area.

Leading the decampees was Chief Barr. Isaac Oduh, former Senatorial candidate of the NNPP, who declared alongside hundreds of supporters their decision to join the PDP, citing the visionary and inclusive leadership of Senator Dr. Abba Moro, the Senate Minority Leader and representative of Benue South.

Speaking on behalf of the defectors, Chief Oduh said their decision was driven by the need to align with a leader who genuinely cares for the people and delivers results.

“Senator Moro’s leadership has shown that politics is about service, not self-interest,” Oduh said.
