DEFECTING APC MEMBER CRIES OUT - I WAS DECEIVED AND DEFRAUDED BY APC

I was deceived and defrauded by APC, defecting member cries out

The All Progressives Congress member of the House of Representatives, Mr Musa Soba, on Wednesday carried out his threat to leave the party by resigning his membership.

Soba, who is from Kaduna State, is one of the over 70 aggrieved APC lawmakers, who protested their loss of return tickets but lost at the appeal panel of the APC.

Soba’s resignation letter was read to members on the floor in Abuja by the Speaker, Mr Yakubu Dogara.

The letter read partly, “As you are aware, the APC is yet to recover from the self-inflicted injury occasioned by double standard, indiscipline and sheer impunity in the conduct of its affairs.

“It is regrettable that the APC, which has enjoyed a lot of goodwill after its formation which culminated in our electoral victory in 2015, is now in disarray due to a complex mixture of ineptitude and inability to understand the dynamics of power in a democratic system of government.

Dogara described the letter as “an epistle” before reading it.
