BREAKING: Sir Lucky Nwogu Dumps YPP for APC

Sir Lucky Nwogu (Lukon), a prominent politician and former House of Representatives candidate on the Young Progressives Party (YPP) in Isiala Ngwa North, Abia State, has formally resigned from the party and joined the All Progressives Congress (APC). Sir Lucky’s defection to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has been described as a substantial collapse of YPP’s support base in Isiala Ngwa North and South. His defection is perceived as a catalyst for a mass exodus of YPP supporters to the APC.

Nwogu, a well-respected philanthropist and influential figure in the region, has cited his decision to join the APC as a demonstration of his support for President Tinubu’s initiatives and the party’s momentum heading into the 2027 general election. His departure is seen as a major blow to YPP’s prospects in Isiala Ngwa, with many supporters expected to follow suit in the coming days.

As a seasoned politician, Nwogu’s decision to join the APC is viewed as a significant gain for the APC, not only in Isiala Ngwa North and South but also across Abia State. Nwogu expressed his gratitude to the leadership of YPP in Isiala Ngwa North and South for the opportunity given to him to serve the party, wishing them well in their future endeavors.

With this defection, YPP’s support base in Isiala Ngwa North and South will now suffer a severe setback, as Sir Nwogu is poised to win more supporters for the APC.
