Dachung Bagos, winner of the All Progressives Congress (APC) primary for the Jos South/Jos East Federal Constituency in Plateau State, on Wednesday, described his defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as a decision taken for political survival
The lawmaker said unresolved internal crises within the PDP left him with no viable option after the Court of Appeal nullified his election.
Mr Bagos said the issues that led to the loss of his mandate after the 2023 general elections were never addressed by the party, making his continued stay untenable.
“I wouldn’t describe it as a difficult decision; it was a necessary one,” he said.
