Senator Neda Imasuen, representing Edo South Senatorial District, has officially left the Labour Party (LP) to join the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The defection was publicly announced during Wednesday’s plenary session of the Nigerian Senate by Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
The move marks a significant shift in Edo State’s political landscape ahead of upcoming elections. Imasuen’s switch to the ruling party is expected to bolster the APC’s influence in the region, which has been a stronghold of the Labour Party in recent times.
Details surrounding the reasons for Imasuen’s defection remain undisclosed, but political analysts suggest that the senator’s decision could be driven by strategic considerations ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Reactions from both parties and constituents in Edo South are awaited as the news continues to reverberate across political circles.
