<\/div>\n
This brings to 13 PDP members in the House as the party before now had three members elected under the party.<\/div>\n
The defection was reportedly facilitated by a member of House of Representatives representing Yewa South\/Ipokia Federal Constituency, Abiodun Akinlade, who dumped APC for the PDP.<\/div>\n
A lawmaker representing Ijebu North-East , Samson Onademuren gave the hint last week during a PDP rally held in Abeokuta , claiming that, he was the secretary of a 3-member faction in the Assembly against the state governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun.<\/div>\n
The Assembly which comprises 26 members now reportedly has 13 PDP members while Labour Party, LP, and APC reportedly shared the remaining 13 members.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Akinlade while receiving the PDP flag, said he decided to join the PDP because of its laudable programmes for the people in the country.<\/div>\n
He promised the people of the state better lives under the PDP, claiming he had lined up some developmental programmes for the state.<\/div>\n
In his remarks, Onademuren said \u201cI can tell you authoritatively that members of G 13 where I am the Secretary are ready to join the PDP.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I have come as the Secretary of the G 13 members of the state House of Assembly to take the flag of the PDP, I want to say that all of us have decided to join the PDP.\u201d<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
