‘No justification for leaving’ — Anambra lawmaker rejoins APGA after 7 months in APC
Cater Dike-Umeh, lawmaker representing Aguata constituency I in Anambra state, has rejoined the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA).
Dike-Umeh announced his return to APGA at the plenary of the Anambra house of assembly on Thursday.
The lawmaker, who was elected to the state house of assembly on the platform of APGA, defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC) in September 2021.
Announcing his return to APGA, Dike-Umeh said he had no justification to have left the party in the first place.
“I want to inform this assembly that I have successfully made a U-turn and retraced my steps to my home party, APGA,” he was quoted as saying.
“I have tendered unreserved apologies to my party leaders at the national, state and ward levels because I have no justification for leaving the party in the first place.
“I will like to tell this house that I was well received by my home party, APGA.”
Okechukwu Okoye, member representing Aguata II constituency (APGA), welcomed Dike-Umeh back to the party.
The house, thereafter, adjourned plenary till April 12.
