I became the enemy of the entire Igbo -Dave Umahi reveals what happened after he defected to APC

The former Governor of Ebonyi State and current Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, has revealed the circumstances surrounding his defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) a few years ago.

During his visit to Governor Francis Nwifuru as part of his state tour to inspect federal roads, Umahi discussed the events leading to his party switch, as reported by The Daily Post paper. He said, “I asked if you could facilitate the process, and you did, and it is currently working. It is not every governor that would want his subject to grow, but I want to assure you of complete comfort.”

Umahi emphasized that President Tinubu values unity and assured Nwifuru that there would be no competition for the party’s leadership within their ranks.

He continued, “That decision (to leave the PDP) nearly took my life; my properties were burnt, and I became the enemy of the entire Igbo, but the decision fetched all of us our present position. So support the governor to deepen the party in the state and the Southeast zone.”

Umahi’s recent statement, as shared by The Daily Post paper on its verified Facebook page, has sparked numerous reactions from many Nigerians on the social media platform.
