The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has lost one of its most formidable figures, Chief Tom Irehovbude, to the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Edo State.

The Egbonghon of Ekpoma, a grassroots mobiliser from Esan West Local Government Area, led thousands of PDP loyalists into the APC.

Addressing party faithful and supporters, Irehovbude cited the “transformative leadership and developmental strides of Governor Monday Okpebholo” as the driving force behind his move.

“I am joining the APC because I have seen what Sen. Monday Okpebholo is doing; touching lives, initiating meaningful development, and bringing governance closer to the people. I believe in leadership that works, and I am ready to contribute to that vision,” he explained.

He lauded the APC’s governance style as ‘a breath of fresh air’ and pledged unwavering support for both Okpebholo and President Bola Tinubu, promising to deliver his political base for the APC in the coming polls.
