Against the backdrop of media reports alluding to the planned
defection of some prominent members of the Peoples Democratic
Party[PDP] and the Labour Party[LP] to the All Progressives
Congress[APC] in Cross River state, National Vice Chairman of the  All
Progressives Congress in the South South, Prince Hilliard Eta has said
the party leadership was not aware of such plans by anyone to defect
to the APC in the state.

Eta in a statement endorsed by his media aide, Mr.Bassey Ita denied
knowledge of the report that the likes of Senator Victor
Ndoma-Egba,Ex-Governor Clement Ebri,Senator Prince Bassey Otu, Ntufam
Fidelis Ugbo  and others who are members of both the PDP and Labour
Party in the state were crossing over to the APC.

The South South Zonal Chairman was quoted in the statement as saying
that ‘’I am not aware of anyone defecting to our party. In fact, to
the best of my knowledge ,nobody is crossing over from any other party
to our party in Cross River state and because I do not know, the
report that anyone is defecting to APC in Cross River state is not
true.’’

The statement urged members of the party and the general public to
discountenance the said media report as it is the figment of the
writers’ imagination.

It  also said ‘’there are laid down procedures to follow by anyone who
intends to defect to the APC and because those procedures have not
been followed, the APC would not be excited to accept a figment of
one’s imagination which may be thought to do the party good.’’
