"I was emotionally disconnected from PDP because of impunity"' - Senator Ita-Giwa

Recall that last week, Senator Florence Ita-Giwa was said to have defected to the All Progressive Congress (APC) from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The former Presidential special adviser, Ita-Giwa signed the APC membership register in Bakkasi LGA, Cross River state.

Ita-Giwa has now confirmed this in a statement posted and shared on one of her private social media handle.
She said: "First of all I have been emotionally disconnected from PDP long before the General Elections because of impunity and the way the party trampled upon innocent human beings and killed people's ambitions. 

"It was not about me and it's still not about me. I even went to the then president and leader of the party and offered to resign. 

"Secondly in all those years I held no position in that party, I was just a floor member and as such could wonder away but I continued to work for the party. 

"Most importantly, when i joined PDP it was called PDP, but today it is tagged after people's names, like Markafi's PDP or Sheriff's PDP. Is that a political party? More to come. God bless you alal."
