The atmosphere at Tuesday’s plenary reached a dramatic point as the 11 Senators who decamped from the Peoples Democratic Party took turns to officially and openly make their intentions to join the All Progressives Congress known to the Senate President and the general public.
The senators made it known on the floor that their decision to declare their intentions openly was as a result of the refusal of the leadership of the Senate to read their letter of defection on the floor of the Senate.
Senator Bukola Saraki who spoke on behalf of the Senators read out their observations that weeks after submitting their letter, it has not been read. He said the defecting Senators were pained at this, but he was now notifying the senate president again.
The senate president, David Bonaventure Mark however responded that the case is in court, hence it should not be a subject of discussion.
The Senators however made a move towards making their defection official as they took turns to announce that despite the senate leadership not reading their letters, they had defected from PDP to APC.
