The opposition party said it would equally challenge the defection of lawmakers elected on its platform, who defected to other parties.
The PDP National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, said this in response to the call made by the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, for the party to sue the governors who defected.
Speaking to journalists on Sunday, Ologbondiyan maintained that the mandate belongs to the party, not the individual
Recall that the Rivers governor in a statement on Saturday said the time had come for the judiciary to make a final pronouncement on the incessant defection of governors and lawmakers from one political party to another, in order to save the country from becoming a one-party state.
