Gov Mbah

The newly inaugurated Enugu State the All Progressives Congress (APC) Caretaker Committee Chairman, Dr. Ben Nwoye, disclosed Friday that Enugu State governor and the entire Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) structure in the state would officially be received into the party on October 14.

Mbah is expected to join the ruling party alongside elected national and state legislators, members of the state executive, and party leaders from ward and local government levels across the state.

APC National Chairman, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, and Deputy National Chairman (South), Hon. Emma Eneukwu, while inaugurating a seven-man caretaker committee for the party in Enugu State, hinted at ongoing efforts to strengthen the party’s influence in the Southeast region.

Confirming the development to newsmen at the APC National Secretariat in Abuja after taking the oath of office, Nwoye disclosed that the governor and his appointees would formally defect to APC on Tuesday, October 14, 2025, in Enugu, the state capital.

The APC National Working Committee (NWC) had on Thursday dissolved the Enugu State Working Committee (SWC) and appointed a seven-member caretaker committee to oversee the party’s affairs in the state.
