Rowland Dennis, the member representing Isiala Ngwa South in the Abia State House of Assembly, has officially defected to the Labour Party (LP) and pledged his support to Governor Alex Otti.
Dennis, who was suspended by his ward for alleged anti-party activities, left the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Tuesday. His defection has drawn criticism from his former party.
Photos released by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Ukoha Njoku Ukoha, confirmed Dennis’ visit to Otti. However, details of their meeting were not disclosed.
