SENATOR Kelvin Chukwu, Enugu East, on Tuesday ditched the Labour Party, LP, for the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.

Senator Chukwu’s defection was announced at plenary by the President of the Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio.

According to the Senator, he was cross-carpeting because of what he described as the collapse of internal democracy and the tattered nature of the LP.

In his remarks, Akpabio, who congratulated Chukwu, said that Nigeria will not be a one-party state as the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, will register more parties.
