Professor Ngozi Nma Odu, the Deputy Governor of Rivers State, has officially defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), further solidifying the party's grip on the oil-rich state.
Odu completed her formal registration as an APC member at her polling unit in Akabuka town, Ward 8, Unit 11, in the Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni Local Government Area.
Following the process, she joined supporters in singing "On Your Mandate We Shall Stand," the popular campaign anthem associated with President Bola Tinubu.
This move comes just weeks after Governor Siminalayi Fubara's high-profile defection to the APC in December 2025, a decision made after a closed-door meeting with President Tinubu.
Fubara was later recognized as the APC leader in Rivers State by the party's national chairman, Nentawe Yilwatda.
The defections mark a dramatic shift in Rivers politics, uniting the state's executive leadership under the APC banner amid ongoing realignments in the region.
