The two members are Hon. Tony Nwoye from Anambra and Hon. Udende Emmanuel from Benue.
PDP in a statement on Wednesday by the Secretary of the Board of Trustees, BoT, Ojo Madueke said: “Let it therefore be understood by those of our members in the National Assembly who may be tempted to jump ship, or have already jumped, that on the basis of clear decisions of cases decided in the Supreme Court, they stand the risk of losing their seats in Parliament if they went ahead with their latest indulgence.
PDP further stated that, “The pattern of PDP electoral victories all over the federation since the 2015 General Elections shows that where there is election arising from such vacancies, PDP will return a more credible and more loyal representative of the people”.
The defecting PDP members said that the party had broken into three factions headed by Ali Modu Sheriff, Ahmed Makarfi and Jerry Gana, respectively, and that they did not wish to belong to any faction.
